In the first half of his first University of Hawai’i men’s basketball game last Saturday, Casdon Jardine went 1 for 5 from the field, missing both of his 3-point shot attempts, and headed into the SimpliFi Arena at Stan Sheriff Center locker room with a quiet two points.
In the first seven minutes of the second half, Jardine made all three of his field goal attempts — each a deep 3-pointer — dished an assist to Justin Webster for a layup and also grabbed a defensive rebound to help the Warriors quickly turn a 32-25 halftime lead over Hawai’i Pacific into a 54-31 advantage by the time he subbed out with 12:25 remaining.
