ABOUT PACWEST HAWAI‘I CHALLENGE

In an effort to elevate the Hawai‘i-based rivalries within the Pacific West Conference and recognize the high level of competition between Hawai‘i Hilo, Chaminade and HPU, the member institutions have created the PacWest Hawaii Challenge, comprised of nine sports that all three of the state's Division II schools participate in.

The PacWest Hawai'i Challenge can be traced back to the late 1970s to early 80s when BYU-Hawai‘i, Chaminade College, the University of Hawai'i Hilo, Hawai‘i Loa College and Hawai‘i Pacific College formed NAIA District 2, followed later by District 29.

Following Chaminade's departure from the NAIA in 1989, the Hawai‘i Intercollegiate Athletics Conference (HIAC) was formed three years later to keep the local rivalries between HPU (which merged with Hawai‘i Loa in '92), UH Hilo (which left the NAIA in '93) and BYUH intact. The HIAC dissolved in 1998 when BYUH and HPU joined the Pacific West Conference.

SCORING

Points are awarded in head-to-head matchups in basketball, soccer, softball and volleyball. A win is two points and a tie worth one point while a loss nets none.

At the conclusion of each sport's season, the points are added and the team with the highest total gets three points while the second-highest gets two and the third-place finisher one. There are no head-to-head tiebreakers so teams that finish with the same number of points all earn the appropriate score toward the season-long standings.

Since there is no consistent regular-season matchups in women's cross country, men's golf and women's tennis, points are awarded in the order of finish at the PacWest Championships.

Postseason competitions do not factor into the tallies.
