The University of Hawaiʻi roster includes nine student-athletes from Hawaiʻi, including Leila Kahoano (left) of Maui. University of Hawaiʻi Head Coach Michele Nagamine said the original idea came from Seattle University Associate Head Coach Rich Schreiner, who proposed bringing a preseason exhibition match to Maui. The University of Hawaiʻi roster includes nine student-athletes from Hawaiʻi, including Leila Kahoano of Maui. Seattle University features seven student-athletes from Hawaiʻi, including Uʻi Kaʻaihue and Evalani Keawekane, both from Maui, making the exhibition especially meaningful as they return home to compete. Together, the University of Hawaiʻi and Seattle University hope the event inspires young athletes to dream big, work hard, and pursue opportunities through education, athletics, and service to their communities.
