University of Hawaii backup center Danny Furlong practiced yesterday and will be available for the UH-Northwestern game in Friday's Outrigger Hotels Rainbow Classic.

Furlong was averaging 5.2 points, 3.4 rebounds and 13.4 minutes per game before he broke the big toe on his right foot in practice on Dec. 9.

"(Trainer) Jayson Goo told me that he had a Christmas present for me before practice," Wallace said. "It will be good to have him back."

Furlong, a 6-11, 235-pound senior center, was originally thought to be out for three weeks.

Clark won the WAC's Pacific Division honor.

Van Horn, a senior forward, had game-highs of 34 points and 12 rebounds in the Utes' victory over Texas.

Van Horn received the honor for the second consecutive week in the Mountain Division.
