Hawaii Prep then went up 14-11 behind shots from Pautz and good blocking at the net by Nakoa Parrish and Dylan Ngango Dikobo. Kealakehe fought back once more, tying the game at 16. With both teams knotted at 17, the Waveriders took advantage of a couple of net calls on Ka Makani to go on an 8-point run. Turi Kekuaokalani served out the game and Klein Hao ended it will a kill down the left line. Kealakehe was playing without their starting setter Kanoa Snively. Jonah Kaulia filled in for him and literally set his team up for victory. “We played very well considering we didn’t have my starting setter, but everyone stepped up,” Lee said. “Jonah did an awesome job filling in and he distributed the ball just like I needed him to.” ANAHEIM, Calif. — Aaron Valdes had 18 points, six rebounds and five assists, and Mike Thomas scored 12 points with 12 rebounds to help top-seeded Hawaii beat No. 8 seed Cal State-Fullerton 75-44 Thursday in the first round of the Big West Conference tournament. Roderick Bobbitt scored 14 points and Stefan Jankovic added 12 for Hawaii, which will play the lowest-remaining seed in a semifinal game Friday. Fullerton (10-20) used a 13-4 that spanned halftime to take a 30-29 lead on a jumper by Tim Myles with 17:33 to play. The Rainbow Warriors (25-5) scored 28 of the next 31 points, including 10 from Valdes, to open a 24-point lead with 10:06 left as the Titans went nearly eight minutes without a field goal. Jamar Akoh scored 12 points and Myles added 10 points with 12 rebounds for Fullerton, which made six second-half field goals — its fewest in a half this season. THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
