Vulcans reap benefits of 3-point shooting
The University of Hawai'i-Hilo basketball team benefited from its 3-point shooting not only on the scoreboard but also in scholarship funding.
The Vulcans made 105 3-pointers at home to generate $5,250 through the KTA Super Store's 3-Points For Vulcan Scholarships Program.
For each 3-pointer made at a home game, $50 was awarded to the scholarship program through the funding of ConAgra Foods, Crossmark Rainbow Hawai'i, Pepsi Bottling, Hawaiian Sun, Love's Bakeries, Kraft Foods, General Mills and Frito Lay.
