I wish to extend my warmest aloha to the University of Hawai‘i’s student-athletes, coaches and staff for their outstanding athletic and academic achievements. Our state takes great pride in the accomplishments of the UH intercollegiate athletics program, and we look for- ward to another year of exciting action. UH sports teams continue to perform at a high level. Last season, we watched quarter- back Timmy Chang close out his record-setting collegiate career by leading the Warriors to a thrilling victory in the Sheraton Hawai‘i Bowl. And who could forget the stunning perfor- mance of our Rainbow Wahine volleyball team led by head coach Dave Shoji, as these young student-athletes turned what was initially regarded as a rebuilding year into a dramatic run for the national championship. We are also proud of UH’s commitment to academics, in that our student-athletes excel in the classroom as well as in sports competitions. They are also exemplary role models who generously donate their time to numerous community activities. Many UH student-athletes have made it into the professional ranks or gone on to become leaders in other fields. Such accomplishments enhance the University’s and state’s overall international reputation. On behalf of the people of Hawai‘i, I commend the UH Athletics program and Athletics Director Herman Frazier for the unwavering commitment to excellence, and offer my best wishes for success in the coming year.
