The last time the University of Hawai’i basketball team departed for a road trip, it was not even Thanksgiving Day. The entire holiday season has come and gone since then, and the Warriors celebrated often during a stretch of 10 home games that produced a 9-1 record.
The next road test has finally arrived, and the Warriors departed for Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon. They will play Big West Conference game at UC Riverside on Thursday, January 14, and at Cal State Fullerton on Saturday, January 16.
Hawai’i is 13-2 overall – the program’s best start since the 2001-02 NCAA Tournament team – and 2-0 in the conference.
