Student A.J. Hurley responds to a Born-Again Christian Fellowship member in the Ba-Le courtyard on Oct. 31. EMI A IKO Associate News Editor

Wearing bright-orange T-shirts with the words “Trust Jesus” and “Fear God” printed across their chests and holding Bibles with the words “Holy Bible” highlighted in bright yellow, a group calling itself Born-Again Christian Fellowship shouted messages to passing University of Hawai’i at Mānoa students for nearly four hours in the Ba-Le courtyard on Monday and Tuesday, sparking controversy. “I’ve been a Christian my whole life,” said A.J. Hurley, a liberal studies student. “I believe in preaching the Gospels, but not

shoving it down in people’s throats like that. Jesus said he died for sinners. ... But the way they’re saying it is not equivalent to the message.” On Monday, the preaching alternated among a total of 13 members and children who appeared on campus shortly after noon, shouting messages on topics such as homosexuality. Two men held a sign that read “Love Warns: Judgement is coming ... Seek Jesus Now.” In March 2009, the same group put on a two-day open-air sermon at Campus Center. It was kicked out on the fi rst day because it didn’t have a permit. This time, the group did get a two-day permit from the university allowing it to

use the premises. But some other Christians on campus expressed annoyance at the group’s behavior. “How loving [or representative of] Jesus’ way is shouting and yelling at people saying, ‘You are all going to burn in hell’?” said Gerard Cyr, a senior majoring in political science, who witnessed an argument between Hurley and a group member. “You’re not going to accomplish anything like that.” “It’s eerie,” said Janet Ruiz, a freshman majoring in psychology. “We are trying to study here, but they also ended up here. They are so loud.” Ruiz and her friends Kevin Sun and Dylan Murakami moved to Mc-

Carthy Mall to avoid the preachers. “One of the guys said ‘God loves you the way you are, but if you are homosexual, then he doesn’t,’” said Sun, “so we all decided to wear this ribbon.” Sun, Ruiz and Murakami were all wearing rainbow ribbons on their shirts, which were passed out by another organization on campus earlier in the day. On Tuesday, only three members of the group showed up to preach, but over a dozen LGBT supporters showed up with signs and passed out candy and condoms to people in the courtyard. “We don’t want to fi ght, we

Campus Security sergeant awarded ‘Top Cop’ honor M AT T SYLVA Columnist Sergeant and Senior Investigator Alberta J.K. Pukahi of the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa’s Campus Security has been named one of Hawai‘i’s “Top Cops.” “It’s defi nitely an honor for me,” said Pukahi. Pukahi and other Top Cops were honored at the Law Enforcement and Security Appreciation Luncheon, held in the Mānoa Grand Ballroom at the Japanese Cultural Center of Hawai‘i on Oct. 27. The Top Cop award is given annually to law enforcement

and security professionals who are nominated by their superiors and peers for going above and beyond the call of duty. “I do investigative work, follow up on reports. … I follow up on sensitive sex-assault cases,” said Pukahi when asked about her job. She said that she aids victims in the process of dealing with the aftermath of assault. “We want to continue to support them. … In the end, we want them to be able to graduate,” stated Pukahi. In a press release, she credited the Women’s Center for being “a place that takes excellent care of women in crisis.” Pukahi deals also with issues between students, referring cases

to the Offi ce of Judicial Affairs and working with judicial to prepare reports. In a press release, CS Chief Wayne K. Ogino said, “Sergeant Pukahi has a special ability to patiently gain the trust of the most reluctant victims and, because of her close rapport with them, solve incidents.” Pukahi has stated that there has been a decrease in sex assault reports, but that the incidents are still occurring. “We need to get out there and educate the student population,” said Pukahi. “It’s the unknown that scares many victims of sex assault cases. If the level of awareness were higher, the numbers [of cases that are reported] would be higher.” This is the third year that Campus Security has been represented at the Top Cop awards. Last year, CS Officer Patrick Movery received the honor.

alterna*APEC provides artistic forum DAVID TER AOK A Staff Writer

Leaders from all over Asia and the PaciďŹ c will be meeting in WaikÄŤkÄŤ next week, but while the Asia-PaciďŹ c Economic Cooperation is here to talk about trade, others are planning to use the limelight to draw attention to Hawai‘i’s artistic voice. “I wish there was more dialogue and engagement of a more philosophical nature about how we exist as consumers and workers,â€? said Jaimey Hamilton, co-curator of alterna*APEC and an assistant art history professor at the University of Hawai‘i at MÄ noa. “[This] forum is a mode to show their research, to help these artists show the effects [of APEC].â€? Alterna*APEC, an art exhibition, will be at The ARTS at Mark’s Garage Nov. 4-19. It will feature Native Hawaiian artists and artists from around the Pacific. The content at the exhibition will be varied from sculpture to painting to collage, and the commissioned and noncommissioned

works will cover a range of topics, from the future to Hawai‘i to sustainability. The show hopes to be a forum for artists to express their personal experiences with business and the economy. Featured along with the exhibition are The Yes Men, a duo of political activists. Specializing in what they call “identity correction services,â€? The Yes Men have impersonated the likes of Dow Chemical and British Petroleum ofďŹ cials to raise awareness of what they view as global social issues. Hamilton is excited to welcome The Yes Men to Hawai‘i, and said she thinks their expository approach helps to point society in the right direction. The duo will give the keynote address at The ARTS at Mark’s Garage on Nov. 3, provide a workshop on their method, “The Yes Lab,â€? Nov. 5, and hold a forum at the UH MÄ noa Art Auditorium on Nov. 6. The event has been in the works for six to eight months, and is part of a two-year research project on artists of the PaciďŹ c. Hamilton said she wants this exhibit to

be representative of what an event like APEC should look like. “This is my alternative to the kind of business co-op that APEC stands for,� she said.

don’t want to argue. We don’t think this kind of negative energy should be allowed on campus. We as the LGBT-friendly community want to extend our love to the general community and anyone and everyone who wants it,â€? said Billy Roehl of the Healthy United Sexualities Club. “His arguments are hypocritical. If he wants to practice what he preaches, he should do more listening and less yelling ... creating a binary with no in between. ... Human life itself is  uid,â€? said Elena Garner, an alumna of UH, of one speaker. As campus security waited at a distance in case of con ict, a woman who identiďŹ ed herself as Sister Evangelista took the stage. “We’re preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as God commands us to do. We love the students,â€? she said. To a student waving a sign that read “Love Yourself,â€? she said, “You don’t know what love is.â€? She explained that God’s love resulted in the sacriďŹ ce of Jesus, but that people still refused to accept his love. To explain this popular aversion to Jesus, she

said, “There’s moral accountability here [holding up a Bible]; there’s things God said to do and not to do.â€? “You want to stay in your fornication ... masturbation ... homosexuality ... lust,â€? she said. She also condemned the Catholic Church as a “false churchâ€? full of pedophiles. Jonathan Cham, a junior studying politics, engaged with the members of the Christian group, quoting passages from the Bible to make an argument against preaching a fearful stance toward God. “The idea that someone can only fear God, and that you can have love in a constant state of fear, I found that very troubling,â€? he said. Cham identiďŹ ed himself as an agnostic Christian whose childhood roots are in the United Church of Christ, which accepts homosexuality. On the topic of “false churches,â€? Cham asked Evangelista if one needs to be part of a church in order to know God, to which she replied, with unwitting irony, “You can ďŹ nd God in the closet!â€?

The winners of the MÄ noa Experience Arts Competition were announced at the Ka Leo Arts Festival on Oct. 20 at 5 p.m., and the University of Hawai‘i at MÄ noa came one step closer to its goal of creating a lasting MÄ noa Experience for the students here. The grand prize-winning entry, titled “POST Elevator Poetry Jams,â€? by Christine Waters, was a 2’ x 1.5’ poster that collected poems she had been writing and posting in the POST service elevator. According to her application, this became “an intriguiing lesson in how people react to them, play with them and/ or what happens to them.â€? “DeďŹ ning and creating the MÄ noa Experience was the conceptual anchor of UH MÄ noa’s reaccreditation efforts,â€? said Myrtle Yamada, an academic affairs program ofďŹ cer and member of the MÄ noa Experience Workgroup, via email. When the Western Association of Schools and Colleges accreditation team visited UH MÄ noa in March of 2011, it met with members of the MÄ noa Experience Workgroup, which was created in 2010 by Reed Dasenbrock, the vice chancellor of academic affairs. The workgroup is chaired by professor Jon Osorio of the KamakakĹŤokalani Center for Hawaiian Studies.

The workgroup presented the WASC team with the idea of a deďŹ ning MÄ noa Experience that students could have that would be different than at any other university in the world. The WASC team encouraged MÄ noa to continue in its efforts to “more clearly articulateâ€? the MÄ noa Experience. According to Yamada, “A major goal was to foster a campus conversation around the following questions: What makes the MÄ noa experience unique? In what distinctive and fundamental manner should students be changed by virtue of their experience with MÄ noa? What core values and competencies should students develop by way of their MÄ noa experience? What do we mean by ‘Hawaiian place of learning’ and ‘Hawaiian sense of place’? How do we reect this in our curriculum and student and campus life?â€? The next step was to get student input. As part of that effort, the MÄ noa Experience Arts Competition was announced at the beginning of the semester. The competition asked students to tell the university about their MÄ noa Experience – both currently and, if so desired, what it could be in the future. Prior to the competition, the workgroup had been involved in other efforts to answer their questions. “The workgroup conducted an alumni survey in summer 2010

asking alumni to describe their MÄ noa experience, [and] has been involved in developing processes for facilitating discussions among students, alumni and other campus stakeholders,â€? said Yamada. The alumni’s positive responses centered around four primary themes which they felt embodied an ideal MÄ noa experience: cultural diversity, a challenging curriculum and rewarding academic environment, a responsive and positive faculty, and a positive social experience in campus life.

Entries (in any media) to the MÄ noa Experience Art Competition were accepted up until Oct. 13 and the prizes – a $500 UH MÄ noa Bookstore gift card for the winner and six $100 cards for the runners up – were awarded at the festival. The entries for the runners up included an additional poster, a poem, a watercolor piece, an original T-shirt and accompanying essay, a short story and a video. Throughout the rest of the semester, Ka Leo will be introducing you to these students and what their MÄ noa experience means to them.

CHASEN DAVIS / KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

A NALIESE DANNER Staff Writer

As resourceful students, we jump at an opportunity to make some extra cash with as little effort as possible. A student could sell candy bars on campus for cheaper than the market price, thus making a proďŹ t through a simple transaction. Or, a student could sell his 10-page research paper to another student taking the same class at a later time. While the former scheme seems relatively harmless, the latter sounds like the perfect recipe for expulsion, unless you carry out this transaction through an online business such as PaperPal. Currently advertised on bulletin boards throughout campus, PaperPal is an online database store where students can upload and sell their papers – legally – to other students hoping to gain inspiration and guidance for their writing assignments. PaperPal claims to address the problems of “rising high school dropout rates, busier schedules and meeting standards of earning a college degreeâ€? through the exchange of academic work. However, it is difďŹ cult to avoid skepticism as to how secure the program is and whether or not it’s wise to partake in it. The PaperPal process begins with uploading an essay of your choice, which is initially sent through a quality assurance ďŹ lter to check for grammatical errors and other key writing traits. Next, the essay is plugged into

a plagiarism search engine that checks for the identiďŹ cation of unique fragments of the piece appearing in other books, articles and published papers. In order to keep your paper exclusive for purchase and to avoid customers simply copying the essay before buying it, a “platingâ€? technique is used to turn your paragraphs into representative pictures that are categorized for potential buyers to browse. An essay of one to four pages in length will earn you $3.00 per sale, while anything over 4 pages retails at $5.00. PaperPal is not the ďŹ rst business of its kind, and while selling papers online is legal, it may pose risks for those involved. If a student simply submits the essay they purchased (or parts of it) as their own work and is caught, he or she will undoubtedly face the serious consequences of plagiarism. One can also argue that the selling of essays over the Internet may be crossing the line when it comes to exploiting students’ work and creativity. Furthermore, facilitating the exchange of essays as merchandise could oppose one of the program’s stated goals by encouraging students to rely on the work of others, rather than developing the necessary skills needed to obtain a college degree. This decreases student incentives to use campus resources such as writing tutors and workshops, and is an example of personal services and skills being replaced by internet-based, electronic tools.

HE SAID

Question I met this guy about a week ago. I think he is super hot. We went on a date Friday night, and one thing led to another. We ended up having sex, and I have not heard from him since. We had plans Sunday night, and I tried calling him. I actually have called him a few times, and have not heard back from him. What should I do?

The ďŹ rst step to ďŹ guring out what to do next is recognizing that not answering your calls is a sign of immaturity.

There are two likely scenarios here: The ďŹ rst is that he was only after sex. People want what they can’t Have a question? Submit it to have, and men love the thrill of the chase and the challenge of obadvice@kaleo.org taining something that they cannot easily get. Maturity allows men to channel that energy into healthy, honest relationships (committed or not), but you have to remember that we don’t live in a perfect world where everyone is mature. Now that he has “obtainedâ€? you, he has lost interest. He knows that if he can get you, other guys might be capable of doing the same thing, and the thrill is lost. On the other hand, it is also entirely possible (especially if alcohol was involved) that he was uncomfortable moving so quickly, even if he didn’t appear to feel that way at the time. If this is the case, he might feel freaked out, confused or awkward. If he is feeling scared, the immature reaction would be to hide from you. Though neither scenario excuses the fact that he is dodging your calls, knowing why he is doing it will let you learn from it. In either case, do not call him. He will not be turned on by your continuous attempts to get in contact with him. And if he’s freaked out, calling repeatedly will make things worse. If you really like him, it might be worth it to wait a few days, but remember that the let-down only grows the longer you wait. See it as a lesson learned and move forward. Next time, wait to have sex until you can gauge exactly how committed a guy is. If you still choose to have sex on the ďŹ rst date, which is your choice entirely, then be up front with guys about your expectations before having sex. It might be awkward, and it might even ruin your date – but if it does, he probably isn’t boyfriend material anyway. And if that’s the case and you still want to have sex with him, then you need to be prepared for the possibility that you may never hear from him again.

SHE SAID

It’s a bad situation, but you have to face facts: It’s over. Don’t continue calling or texting him, because that will only push him further away. I don’t mean to sound harsh, but the reason he’s not calling you back is because he ďŹ gured out you’re not what he wants – at least not on a ďŹ rst date. You should always wait to have sex with someone, no matter how much you like him or her. By sleeping with him right away, you’ve taken the mystery out of what could have happened in the future. It sounds like he got what he wanted and left. I’m not one to judge, but next time, take it slow and learn to respect each other first if you value an honest relationship. For now, look forward and remember tomorrow is always a new day. Guys come and go, but if you’re positive, you’ll find one that’s a classic and worth keeping around.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

Textbooks a thing of the past This semester, I spent $130 on a “print on demand” science text which I cannot sell back. A few days later, Amazon.com announced an e-reader for under $100, and a fully functional tablet computer for $199. It makes no sense in this time of hyper-connectivity and ubiquity of knowledge and ideas to continue forcing college students to take part in this textbook cartel. Instead of spending $500 to $1000 on textbooks each semester, we should be spending a few hundred on a good tablet computer once, and maybe paying for particularly important articles every once in a while. Or, if textbooks are necessary, they should be in an electronic format, and priced accordingly. Pay academics for their

expertise, not publishing conglomerates for their environmentally unsustainable endeavors. The information is just as available – for free, and with a search function – on the internet or in scholarly databases. The writing in most textbooks isn’t particularly good, and the production and design of them could easily be bested by an eighth grader with Microsoft Paint and a laser printer. There is a better way than spending thousands each semester on these pulped forests. I don’t plan or implement curriculum. But I do have almost 140 college credits on my transcript. Academics could put together electronically available reading lists for their students. PDFs of Wikipedia articles and Wikiversi-

ty modules and links to scholarly articles will serve just as well as heavy, over-priced, environmentally harmful books. This move away from textbooks will not only improve students’ critical reading ability, save us money and improve the flow of ideas in academia, it will also save our dwindling natural resources in other ways. If we bring reading material onto a standardized tablet, such as an iPod, an Android tablet or Kindle, that will set the stage for the distribution of handouts electronically. The cost savings – not to mention the elegance of paperless handouts – should encourage any open-minded department to seriously consider doing away with textbooks.

Tuition hike coverage Ka Leo recently ran two opinion pieces related to the proposed tuition hikes. One used an unsourced Lenin quote to warn us about the Federal Reserve’s secret plot to destroy capitalism. The other reminded us that Hawai‘i is actually an independent country. Seceding from the Union and returning to the barter system are both very reasonable solutions to our budgetary shortfall. Thank you for presenting the concerns of UH students in an intellectually serious manner that ensures decision makers will take them seriously.

Obnoxiously

vehicles: WTF? TREVOR Z AKOV Staff Writer

CHASEN DAVIS/ KA LEO O HAWAI‘I

The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health recommends no more than eight hours of exposure to sound over 85 decibels in a day.

COMPLIMENTARY COVER WITH COLLEGE ID BEFORE 12 AM

4TH FLOOR OF ALA MOANA CENTER LOCATED ON HOʻOKIPA TERRACE ABOVE PEARL

O‘ahu seems to be rather accommodating of the large population of motorcycle and scooter drivers and their unique needs. The roads are shared, and this vast mix of motorized vehicles of various sizes forces all drivers on the road to be even more careful and mindful of the smaller motorists. Those who drive cars are at a clear advantage, not only in size, but also in sheer mass and – most importantly – the mitigated risks involved for the driver in case of an accident. In comparison, those motorists who drive scooters or motorcycles are exposing themselves to higher risk factors because in the case of an accident, these drivers do not benefit from having a steel frame to absorb the energy from an impact or collision. Opinions diverge regarding how motorcycles and scooters should better protect themselves on the road by utilizing loud engines, horns, or bright lights. The term “pipes save lives” is used by many motorcycle enthusiasts to defend the argument that their super loud engines serve to notify nearby car drivers that there is a motorcycle approaching. Some motorcycle drivers prefer “hogs,” while others choose “crotch rockets” or other large, motorized engines that emit noises which reverberate for miles around. Hogs are typically identified as Harley-Davidson motorcycles, and these have a cult following. It is safe to say that most of us have witnessed a caravan or parade of Harley-Davidsons, sometime, somewhere. These drivers absolutely love to rev their engines. Why? What do these drivers accomplish by forcing people to cover their ears in pain and setting off car alarms from the high decibel-level vibrations? Not to single out Harley-Davidson owners, but perhaps these people drive their motorcycles for a more Machiavellian reason. These are not the top reasons why a ‘hog’ motorcycle driver buys their noisy motorcycle: it has real transportation and hauling

utility, it handles very well, or the motorcycle is undeniably unique. Instead, the drivers probably buy and drive their motorcycle aimlessly around town and sometimes even across the country because they get a chance to interrupt and annoy other people’s lives. The worst part is that these people know they are demanding negative attention and they like it. Drivers of loud vehicles, including super decked-out cars, have the opportunity to rev their engines when they first start the vehicle and at every intersection thereafter. People with loud vehicles have a field day when they have to wait at a red light; they can rev their engines all day. High gas prices? These people single handedly fund the oil industry with all the gas they waste making loud engine noises. Crotch rockets, as well as ‘soupedup’ cars, are the biggest offenders for noise pollution. These motorized vehicles are designed to deliver very few specs: accelerate fast, run even faster and make immense amounts of noise throughout. For those of us who could care less about fast and loud vehicles, the deafening noise associated with these vehicles is downright repulsive. Crotch rocket drivers and pimpedout car drivers frequently epitomize the stereotypical situation where they rev their engines at a red traffic light, then floor the gas like drag racers when a red light turns green. The following moments of agonizingly loud and obnoxious engine noises and gear shifting is best situated for a race track, where people actually pay to see a vehicular competition, and not on a public street, where people just want to commute and not be bothered. Perhaps due to O‘ahu’s hillsides and valleys, the way the noise from these loud engines carries is as impressive as the island itself. Those who side with the loud motor vehicles must admit, if not to anyone else then at least to themselves, there has been a time when they were sleeping, taking a nap or in the middle of a conversation and were rudely interrupted by a passing loud vehicle – and in that moment cursed loud engines for how obnoxious they really are.

Wahine soccer returning to prominence in WAC JEREMY NIT TA Staff Writer

At long last, the University of Hawai‘i women’s soccer team is a winner again. The Rainbow Wahine battled back from a rough preseason to earn the number three seed in this week’s Western Athletic Conference Tournament. “The best thing is that we have as good of a shot to win as anyone,� said head coach Michele Nagamine. “Once you get into tournament play, you either win or you go home. The teams that win get a bit of momentum, and when a team has momentum, strange things can happen.�

DENYING THE DOUBTERS Prior to this season, the Rainbow Wahine suffered three straight losing seasons in the WAC, a mark that Nagamine vowed to ďŹ x at the start of the season. “Our number one goal was M; >7L; 7 DKC8;H E< EFFEHJKD?J?;I M?J>0

to get back to the WAC Tournament,� said Nagamine. “This has been our highest finish since 2003, and I’m just really, really proud of the team.�

We’ve exceeded everyone’s expectations. We played hard and competed with some really good teams. We accomplished ... our goals this season. Hawai‘i, which was picked to finish seventh out of eight in the preseason polls, exceeded expectations, finishing with a record of 4-2-1 in conference play. “We’ve really improved in leaps and bounds, and set a good foundation for the future,� said Nagamine. “We’re definitely changing the losing culture of the program, and this team has really set the bar high for next year.�

HEART OF A CHAMPION Hawai‘i began the season poorly, losing seven of its ďŹ rst nine games. However, Nagamine

W H AT ĘźS N E X T The WAC Tournament begins tomorrow at Fresno State’s Bulldog Stadium. Hawai‘i will play New Mexico State in the first round of the tournament at 11:30 a.m. HST. New Mexico State defeated Hawai‘i 1- 0 last Friday, which cost the Rainbow Wahine a shot at the WAC regular season title. If the ’Bows manage to win against the Aggies, they will need to win two more matches to seal the WAC title. “We pretty much spoiled perfect WAC seasons for both teams [Utah State and Fresno State],â€? said Nagamine. “When we see those teams in the tournament, they are going to be coming out with a chip on their shoulder, and they’ll want to settle the score.â€? Nagamine also mentioned that the team is currently deal-

ing with some injuries, as well as overall fatigue. “By the time we get to Fresno, we will have been on the road for about a week,â€? said Nagamine. “Then we’re going to have to stay another four or ďŹ ve days depending on how we do. It’s been tough for the girls. When you don’t get to sleep in your own bed, or eat your comfort foods, and stick to your usual routines, it kind of takes you out of your comfort zone.â€? But despite the barriers standing between Hawai‘i and a WAC title, Nagamine said that no matter the final results of the tournament, this season will go down as a success. “We’ve exceeded everyone’s expectations,â€? said Nagamine. “We played hard and competed with some really good teams. We accomplished every one of our goals this season. We obviously want to do well in the tournament, but right now, whatever else happens this season would be icing on the cake.â€?

’Bows are back: newcomers make impact M ARC A R AK AKI Sports Editor Rainbow Wahine basketball is back – and with some new faces. 5-foot-3-inch freshman guard Alissa Campanero made a statement in her fi rst game as a ’Bow. The San Diego, Calif., native dropped down a team-high 18 points in Hawai‘i’s exhibition win last weekend against HPU. “Being a freshman, I was able to go out there and not really get into the hype and all that stuff,” Campanero said. “Of course [I had] butterfl ies all day, especially [since] we had all day to think about it. A lot of my teammates helped me.” “She [Campanero] had a nearperfect game,” head coach Dana Takahara-Dias said. “She missed a free throw. Other than that she played solid. Not only was she able to score many points and do it many different ways, but she did a wonderful job running this relentless full-court offense and defense.

She had the most minutes tonight, and she’s in great physical shape.” Along with Campanero, sophomore guard Kanisha Bello started in the backcourt for the Rainbow Wahine. Bello, a native of Hilo and a transfer from Idaho, was fi ve for nine from the fi eld with 11 points. “Kanisha’s a great person to feed off of,” Campanero said. “She’s great around the perimeter, and I’m able to find her all the time.” After fi nishing last season 1119, Takahara-Dias is optimistic about the team this season, and said she was pleased with the team’s performance at the freethrow line. “We’re a very different-looking team,” Takahara-Dias said. “We shot 88 percent from the free throw line. We averaged 60 percent last year. So we have been working very hard on that part.”

honorees Kamilah Jackson and Shawna-Lei Kuehu made their presence known on Saturday. Jackson pounded down 14 points and grabbed eight rebounds, and Kuehu scored nine points and secured a team-high nine rebounds. But it was sophomore guard Sydney Haydel who made the largest impact of the returnees. Haydel came off the bench to match Campanero’s point total with 18. “I’m always excited to play, so that was great to be able to watch the game and study it and then come in to be able to make an impact. That was great,” Haydel said. Hawai‘i will gear up for its last exhibition game before kicking off the regular season. The Rainbow Wahine will host the Brigham Young University– Hawai‘i Seasiders on Friday at the Stan Sheriff Center.
