UH-Hilo squeaks out win over Dartmouth

Alex Cabagnot's last-second shot gave Hawaii-Hilo a 50-48 victory over Dartmouth in the second game of the Hilo Shootout.

Joe Travis led the Vulcans (3-1) with 13 points, while Cabagnot finished with 11 points and four assists.

Defense dominated the game from the outset, as the Vulcans managed just 27 percent shooting in the first half. The Big Green couldn't take advantage however, shooting an even-worse 19 percent as the Vulcans led 18-15 at halftime.

Seasiders cruise: Jake Chrisman scored 25 points and Shawn Opunui added 22 as Brigham Young-Hawaii defeated Adams State 87-63 last night in Laie.

BYUH (3-2) led 42-39 at halftime but broke open the game in the second half, outscoring Adams State 45-24.

Chrisman shot 10-for-14 from the field, while Opunui was 4-for-8 from 3-point range as BYUH shot 61 percent from the field.

Brandon Brochinsky scored 23 points to lead Adams State.

Sea Warriors lose in 2 OTs: Marvin Noble scored 24 points and Jay Bussey pulled down 12 rebounds, but the Sea Warriors fell to Humboldt St. 87-86 in double overtime last night at Mid-Pacific.

Aaron Abrams added 19 points and six rebounds for Hawaii Pacific (0-4). Fred Hooks led Humboldt State (4-0) with 22 points.

Centeio wins Rip Curl Cup trials

Hawaii's Joel Centeio won yesterday's Rip Curl Cup trials at Sunset Beach in 10- to 12-foot surf to advance into the main event.

In the 30-minute decider, Centeio held off Tahiti's Manoa Drollet and Hawaii's Sean Moody and Love Hodel to win. The 20-year-old former world amateur champion moved into his first World Championship Tournament and will face defending Rip Curl Cup champion Joel Parkinson and Australian Phil MacDonald.

Moody and Hodel also advanced into the main event, along with wild cards Pancho Sullivan and Jamie O'Brien of Hawaiian Rip Curl.

Bethany Hamilton, the 13-year-old Kauai surfer who lost her left arm in a shark attack three weeks ago, presented the trophy to Centeio.
