Hawai'i Hilo Vulcans Athletics

Kim Schmelz played a big role in UH Hilo's upset attempt of No. 4 nationally ranked Hawai`i Pacific on Sunday. Schmelz had 27 points in a game where her three-pointer with six minutes left gave the Vulcans a 50-47 lead on the three-time defending PacWest champions. The Sharks would pull away but the super senior would finish with her highest point total since the 2016-17 season, hitting 11 of 19 shots from the field. For the weekend, she had 35 total points and seven rebounds. The Sacramento native now has 908 career points, third on the Vulcan all-time list.
