One night after making the nice list, the University of Hawai'i men's basketball team made the naughty list in a 77-53 loss to UNLV last night.

It was like a game of telephone with nobody at the end of the line. Hiram Thompson would order commands to his body, things he knew he was capable of doing on a basketball court.

The University of Hawai'i men's basketball team might have broken out of its second-half slumps, but a first-half slump cost the Rainbow Warriors last night at Irvine, Calif.

The last time Hawaii played at UC Irvine, Bob Nash did the dirty work himself. That was in February 1972; the Rainbow Warriors rolled to an 88-79 victory behind Nash and the Fabulous Five to begin a seven-game winning streak.

After falling apart in its last three outings of a five-game homestand, the Hawaii men's basketball team is trying to pull together before its first road trip of the season.

Darington Hobson had 21 points and 10 rebounds to lead New Mexico to an 83-71 win over Hawaii at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Appropriate for Black Friday, the University of Hawai'i men's basketball team will use a reduced lineup to try and make up for its previous losses.

Darington Hobson scored 21 points, and New Mexico remained undefeated by beating Hawaii 83-71 on Friday night.

Nothing seems to come easy for the University of Hawai'i men's basketball team these days.

The Hawaii men's basketball team has its appetite back. Some untimely mental malaise by the Rainbow Warriors in last Friday's 83-65 blowout home loss to BYU ran its course over the weekend.

Maybe it's a good thing that Hawaii and BYU don't cross paths often these days. The Rainbow Warriors' former conference rival doled out an 83-65 beatdown in a 10-year reunion last night at the Stan Sheriff Center.

The last time Hawaii played BYU in men's basketball, Beau Albrechtson and Rykin Enos were in elementary school.

For its opening act, the University of Hawai'i men's basketball team appeared, disappeared, then reappeared in a 65-48 victory over Southern Utah last night.

Will Figures led four players in double figures with 15 points to lift Northern Colorado to a 81-75 win over host Hawaii early Tuesday morning in the Rainbow Classic.

Hiram Thompson at small forward? Roderick Flemings at center? It could happen again.

The Outrigger Hotels Rainbow Classic still matters -- perhaps now more than ever -- for the Hawaii men's basketball team.

Time to make a last stand. The six seniors on the Hawaii basketball team have one final year to leave their mark on a Rainbow Warriors program searching for a winning identity under third-year coach Bob Nash.

Exhibition basketball games are not supposed to be much-anticipated. Tonight will be an exception, when the University of Hawaii men's basketball team hosts Brigham Young-Hawaii. 'We're taking it serious, just like they are,' Hawaii senior forward Bill Amis said.

The University of Hawai'i men's basketball team overcame injuries and a late rally by Brigham Young-Hawai'i to win an exhibition game last night.

The bragging rights remain in Manoa. Hawaii shot 60 percent from the field and never trailed in snuffing out the "Best Team on the Island" debate in an 83-69 exhibition win against the nation's top-ranked Division II team, Brigham Young-Hawaii, last night at the Stan Sheriff Center.
