UPDATED: Warriors pull away late from Prairie View A&M, 72-60
The University of Hawai’i men’s basketball team earned its way back into the victory column Wednesday night, but it wasn’t quite as easy as the final 72-60 score might indicate against stubborn non-conference opponent Prairie View A&M.
A mostly mellow crowd of 4,963 (tickets issued) at the Stan Sheriff Center watched Drew Buggs score a career-high 17 points and grab five rebounds, Brocke Stepteau add a season-high 16 points off the bench and Mike Thomas contribute 14 points and 11 boards to help the Warriors improve to 5-2. Gary Blackston poured in a game-high 27 points for the Panthers, who fell to 2-6.
