Navy Preview, Jon Medeiros, Ken Niumatalolo

The Sports Network has a preview of the UH-Navy game.
Even though he has started just four of 11 games this season, Corey Paredes is still the top man on the team with his four sacks and has been credited with three forced fumbles. Silva is now up to six INTs on the year and combines that with 60 tackles to make him one of the more feared players on the Hawaii defense this season.

Navy already knows where it is heading next month, but the Warriors are still in limbo so the incentive should be on the side of Hawaii. However, as one of the worst teams in the country when it comes to stopping the run, the Warriors are setting themselves up for disappointment this weekend.

Sports Network Predicted Outcome: Navy 31, Hawaii 17
HawaiiAthletics.com and NavySports.com have game info and notes.

Stephen Tsai and Jason Kaneshiro profile slotback Jon Medeiros.
"We're starting to get that consistency and we're starting to build that confidence back up and everybody's just believing that we can do it," Medeiros said. "We've overcome so much adversity and we just have to keep going and rise to the occasion."
There are also injury updates on Bryant Moniz, Greg Salas and Jeramy Bryant.

And Bill Wagner of HometownAnnapolis.com profiles Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo.
As a senior at Radford High, Niumatalolo was the starting quarterback for a team that captured the annual Prep Bowl at Aloha Stadium. The left-handed thrower accepted a scholarship to the University of Hawaii and played many more games in the multi-purpose facility that has hosted everything from concerts to car shows to state fairs.

"That stadium holds a lot of great memories for me. In high school, my team won the state championship there. I played and coach there when I was at Hawaii," Niumatalolo said. "As a young boy, I used to sell newspapers there. I remember rooting for the Warriors and hanging out by the locker room hoping someone would throw you up a wristband."
