UH roundup: Volleyball, baseball win; Women's basketball loses

Advertiser Staff

Men's volleyball: The University of Hawai'i swept the nation's top-ranked men's volleyball team on the road tonight.

The Warriors took 90 minutes to earn a 30-25, 30-26, 30-25 victory over UCLA in front of 1,829 — the largest men's volleyball crowd at Pauley Pavilion this year.

The victory put UH (11-2, 9-1) into a first-place tie with idle Pepperdine. The Warriors will play the Waves on Wednesday night and Friday night at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Baseball: Luis Avila's bases-loaded RBI single with no outs in the bottom of the 10th inning lifted Hawai'i over Washington State, 10-9, tonight.

A Les Murakami Stadium crowd of 1,831 saw the Rainbows (7-4) play their third extra-inning affair of the season.

Avila drilled the first offering from Nick Cebula (1-2) to right to score Joe Spiers, who led off the inning with a walk.

Women's basketball: Krystal Frazier scored a team-high 19 points and Rice crashed Hawai'i's Senior Night, 70-49, in a Western Athletic Conference game at the Stan Sheriff Center.

A crowd of 921 watched seniors Jade Abele and Milia Macfarlane play their final home game.
