All I Got from a CIT Second Round Game…

…are pictures of the Rainbow Dancers?

That’s what happens when you let the leader of Hawaii’s hottest gentlemen’s club wield your camera during Hawaii’s second round CIT game against San Francisco. Thanks to ESPN radio, we had choice seats in the fifth row where we watched the Bows’ lead vanish in the last minute of play. It was crushing. The Bows were playing tough in their Adidas “Supermoons,” seemingly going to the next round of the CollegeInsider.com Tournament. Then like that, victory was gone.

Missed free throws, a flagrant foul, a shooting foul on a three, an errant pass, and the deal was sealed. Overall, the Bows had an excellent year after so many unknowns to start the season: injuries, mid-season departures, then more injuries. Going to the Big Dance would have been nice, but for a team picked last in the conference, playing in any post season tournament is an accomplishment. Congratulations to the Rainbows for a great season and can’t wait until the Bows hit the court next year. Until then, a few images from the Rainbows last game.
