UH Pulls Off Come From Behind Win Over UCSD (2/9/23)

The Rainbow Warrior Men's Basketball team pulled off a come‑from‑behind win, 69‑62, over the UC San Diego Tritons at the Stan Sheriff Center. After a slow start, UH tightened the screws, cutting the double‑digit deficit to single digits with a JoVon McClanahan lay‑up at the buzzer to trail 35‑29 at the break. UH then sparked a 15‑0 run, taking the lead on a Kody Williams lay‑up that included an additional foul. Towards the end, UH made 2‑point shots while UCSD made three triples in a row, but a Samuta Avea triple and two monster dunks put the writing on the wall. UH will now face Cal State Fullerton on Saturday, Feb. 11, looking for revenge after losing in overtime at Titan Gym, 79‑72, and committing 22 turnovers.
