The University of Hawaii at Hilo saved their best basketball for the last few minutes to take a 60-56 win over Brigham Young University-Hawaii in a non-conference game in the UHH gym.

“I was very happy with the way they played at the end,” said UHH Head Coach David Kaneshiro. “Just as much emotionally as what they executed on the court.

“We were down nine with eight minutes to go and they hung tough, got some defensive stops, didn’t turn the ball over and gave us a chance.”

The Vulcans (1-3) went on an 11-2 run late in the game to knot the game at 51 with 3:28 remaining.

Hillary Hurley hit the first of two free throws to tie the game at 56. When her second shot was off the mark, Philly Schultz put back the rebound to give the Vulcans the lead for good.

“It was a big play because it was another possession,” said Kaneshiro. “We kind of struggled to score so any extra chance you get to score is huge, especially to do it in the last few seconds of the game.”
Schultz finished with at game-high 10 rebounds and added 14 points on 7 of 9 shooting from the field.

Hurley led the Vulcans with 20 points on 6 of 6 shooting from the field and 8 of 9 shooting at the free throw line.
