Hawaii women’s basketball team avoids loss to last-place UC Riverside
Lily Wahinekapu helped the Hawaii women’s basketball team regroup just in time to avert a costly home defeat to the Big West Conference’s last-place team on Saturday.
The sophomore point guard scored 10 straight points in the fourth quarter once UC Riverside crept within a point and the Rainbow Wahine escaped with a 55-51 win at SimpliFi Arena. Wahinekapu had 14 points, a career-best 10 rebounds, four assists, four steals and six turnovers.
