Fans got to meet some of their favorite University of Hawai’i players and coaches in a meet-and-greet event at the City Square Shopping Center in Kalihi Saturday morning.
Members of the UH football, men’s volleyball and women’s and men’s basketball teams were featured.
Hawai’i football coach Timmy Chang and associate head coach Chris Brown made appearances, as well as Micah Alejado, Tylan Hines, Pofele Ashlock, Elijah Palmer and Peter Manuma.
“It was great to come out here and meet the community, meet the people you play for and just sit down and talk story and get to meet everybody,” said Manuma. “Just hearing some of their stories means a lot to us, how much we impact them.”
It was also the football team’s last weekend off before training camp starts up next Wednesday, a near month before their season opener against Delaware State on Aug. 24.
“We’re really excited,” said Manuma, a defensive back. “Everybody can’t wait to go at it against each other. Couple more weeks and we don’t got to play each other no more, we can finally play against another team.”
The UH Men’s volleyball program was represented by players Kurt Nusterer, Eleu Choy and Presley Longfellow.
New UH women’s basketball guard Mia ‘Uhila was in attendance with teammates Brooklyn Rewers, Jade Peacock, and Imani Perez, along with over a dozen members from the men’s basketball team.
Proceeds from the event, which ran from 10 a.m. to noon, will go towards UH athletics.
