2 Sea Warriors
hit for cycle

Travis Clutter and Gabe Gerhardt each hit for the cycle -- single, double, triple, homer -- as Hawaii Pacific drubbed West Liberty (W.Va.), 18-1, yesterday at Hans L'Orange Park for its 11th consecutive baseball victory and a 23-6 season mark.

The second game of the scheduled doubleheader was canceled due to light failure. The teams will play another twinbill today, starting at noon.

HPU SOFTBALL TEAM HOT, TOO: Susie Shoals pitched a four-hitter for her 50th career softball victory as streaking Hawaii Pacific blanked Southern California College, 8-0, yesterday at HPU's Windward Campus field.

The Sea Warriors (17-1-1) have won eight in a row -- all by shutout.

UH-USC WATER POLO SHOWDOWN: The nationally sixth-ranked Hawaii women's water polo team takes on No. 1 USC at 6:30 tonight in the Duke Kahanamoku Aquatic Complex.

The Trojans have won 13 of 14 matches, including an 8-4 decision over UH last month in the UC San Diego Tournament, and are 4-1 in the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation. The Wahine are 12-7 overall and 2-2 in MPSF play.

UH MEN, WOMEN TENNIS VICTORS: The Hawaii men's tennis team defeated Western Illinois, 7-0, and Weber State, 6-0, yesterday at the UH courts, improving its season record to 9-5.

The UH women trimmed Western Illinois, 8-1, for an 8-5 season record. Their match with Weber State was rained out.

BYUH WOMEN ROLL ALONG: BYU-Hawaii's unbeaten women's tennis team (15-0) whipped Western Kentucky, 9-0, yesterday at Laie for its fourth victory over an NCAA Division I opponent this season.

DUATHLON WINNERS: Michael Tobin won the third annual All-Star cafe Powerman Honolulu Duathlon on Sunday, running away from a strong field in the North Shore run-bike-run event.

Tobin book-ended 10-kilometer times of 28:46 and 34:49 around a 1:31:25 60-kilometer bike race to rout the field. Chris Willis was second, 7 minutes, 32 seconds behind.

Lucy Smith won the women's field in 2:57:57.
