Despite another loss in the first round of the WAC Tournament ( its been 6 years since the Bows have won at least one game), the season will continue next Tuesday in the CIT with a home game against Portland from the WCC. We announced this game and probable match up on Hoopstalk on Monday and the contract was signed right after today's loss.

Thanks to Riley Wallace and Jim Donovan for making this happen. You know that with a RPI over 135, Hawaii would not be in post-season without Riley and Jim 's efforts led to the home game. Now lets get out and support this program  with a huge crowd Tuesday night.

Today's game proved the old basketball adage that a really good offensive guard and the ability to make free-throws are critical in post season.  Adrian Oliver showed why he is all WAC, and the Bows inability to score from the line cost them a game they should and could have won. Nothing to be ashamed about however. These are two equal teams, and after two Hawaii regular season wins, this won went to the Spartans.

I though Amis's putback beat the clock. We had no reply, and there was no tv. The ball looked to me like it left Bill's hand before the red light went on, but i could not see the game clock. The referee by the basket called the shot good, but after a very brief huddle by the monitor, the officials said the shot came too late. Frankly, it never should have come down to that.

With the regular season over, the Bows , by any account, had a great season. And its not over. With a win Tuesday,  a second round game at home on friday is a real possibility. See you at the Arena on Tuesday
