Stefan Jankovic scored 22 points and grabbed eight rebounds and Quincy Smith added 18 points and three assists tonight to help Hawai’i hold off visiting UC Davis, 78-62, in Big West Conference men’s basketball action.

A spirited Stan Sheriff Center “Super Hero Night” crowd of 9,289 watched Isaac Fleming add 13 points and four assists as the Rainbow Warriors improved to 16-2 overall — the program’s best start since the “Fabulous Five” era 44 years ago — and 5-0 in league play. The Aggies fell to 7-11, 2-3.

After UH took a slim 37-35 lead into halftime, UC Davis power forward Josh Fox tied it on a layup 21 seconds into the second half.
