WHY HAWAI‘I HILO
» "I fell in love with the campus and Hilo as a town when I went on my visit in 2020. Hilo is the perfect place where I am able to pursue my athletic aspirations while also given the opportunity to get a well-rounded education! It is also my home away from home, where I am able to catch a quick flight if I want to take a fast trip back home! It also allows my family to fly in to watch our home games on the weekend, or to watch us when we play in Honolulu."
