HONOLULU – The University of Hawai'i men's basketball team visited Kapi'olani Medical Center For Women & Children on Wednesday with players, coaches and staff providing encouragement, mementos and autographs for ailing children.

 

“This was a great opportunity for our team to reach out to those in need,” head coach Gib Arnold said. “These children could really use a lift and it was our hope today to brighten up their day and give them something to feel good about. Any time our student-athletes can do that we'll be there, because community service is an integral part of our program.”
