Spring Day 5

NelsonO has posted a Day 5 recap on Sportshawaii.com. Here's a small excerpt about Blaze Soares and Jason Laumoli:
Soares in particular has been a terror on defense. Soares is just nailing guys. During Wednesday’s practice, Soares planted another slotback coming through his area.

Running back Jason Laumoli is a load. He broke three potential tackles one play. On another play, he ran over two guys.

Back to Soares…On one of the best hits of the day, Soares by himself tackled Laumoli. But the amazing thing was that not only did Soares stop Laumoli one-on-one, Soares drove Laumoli backwards. Soares is fun to watch (from a safe distance).
Can't wait to see Blaze play this season! And Laumoli for that matter. Click through the link to read the rest of the recap. Thank you NelsonO.

Stephen Tsai writes on The Warrior Beat:
Colt Brennan, playing safety, made an interception.
Unfortunately, we don't have video.
But the Advertiser will have video of some UH players singing a little later today. Updates to come...

UPDATE: Timo Paepule, Michael Lafaele, Rustin Saole and Fale Laeli sing a song. And then they get interviewed about it.

UPDATE 2: KKV2000 also has a Day 5 report on Sportshawaii.com. Here's an excerpt:
I got to observe Ray Hisatake this morning. He looks to be the most well proportioned of all the offensive lineman. He looks like a taller Samson Satele. He was getting a lot of encouragement from McKnight for making right decisions. Later in the morning the offense and defense were going prettyhard against each other. Hisatake, I thought held his own. Veikune beat him on an inside rush on one play but other than that he did very well for somone who has never played OL. The o=lineman that stands out to me is Letuli. He is such a terrific athlete. He was playing left guard and working on running plays. Satele and Estes are terrific pulling guards but Letuli is faster.
Ray Hisatake and Laupepa Letuli are currently second string O-line according to KKV's report. Sounds like the Warriors O-line is gonna be solid!

    Tombo,
    That video was great. These guys have a lot of heart. They are going to well this year. Very well. I didn't think they could be better than last year's team, but now I think they will be. We have a lot to look forward to. Thanks for the posting.

    yeah, i just updated the post with observations by kkv2000 of the o-line. looking really good! lets hope the mississippi state game comes to fruition so they can play an SEC team again and hopefully boost the strength of schedule.
