For the first time since 1993, the University of Hawaii men's basketball team had no representatives on the Western Athletic Conference Pacific Division First Team.

Hawaii guards Anthony Carter and Alika Smith were named to the second team. Selections were released yesterday.

Rainbow forward Erin Galloway was named to the All-Newcomer Team and All-Defensive Team.

"I think we should have had at least one player on the first team," Rainbow coach Riley Wallace said. "But we did have that midseason slump and people probably formed an opinion about us then."
