Ben Dew Commits to UH

Stephen Tsai writes that offensive lineman Ben Dew will become a Warrior.

"I'm excited to play for the Warriors," Dew said.

Dew was born in Gainesville, Fla., and has lived in Tennessee, New Zealand and, for one year, in Hawaii.

"I like (Hawaii's) beaches, but most of all, I like the people," Dew said. "They're very family-oriented. They are -- what's the saying? -- ohana."

Dew said he is 6 feet 4 and 300 pounds. He can bench press 355 pounds. He also is skilled in rugby and basketball.

"He's a beast," Onosai said. "He's a big boy. He's a very feisty competitor. He's going to be a great addition to Hawaii's offensive line."

Congrats to Ben!
