Two-a-day practices are quickly becoming a relic in professional and college football, but, as is often the case, soccer is different.

The two soccer squads at the University of Hawaii at Hilo have been traveling around the east side this week, finding suitable places to practice away from their largely unusable field.

The men’s and women’s teams each practiced at Bayfront fields Wednesday afternoon and then Gene Okamura, still coaching both NCAA teams, took them up the hill to Kamehameha Schools Hawaii for evening training.

That makes it four-a-days for the coach.
