Hawaii Captures 23-3 Homecoming Win over Portland State

Hawaii's offense gained 240 yards passing and Kansei Matsuzawa made three field goals; the Warriors overcame 13 penalties totaling 138 yards to secure their 24th consecutive FCS win.

  • On Saturday, the University of Hawaii Rainbow Warriors football team defeated the Portland State Vikings football team 23-3, with backup quarterback Luke Weaver throwing two touchdown passes to running back Cam Barfield and kicker Kansei Matsuzawa converting three field goals including a career-high 47-yarder.
  • With Micah Alejado sidelined, backup Luke Weaver started, and starting center Ethan Spencer did not play due to concussion protocol; Head Coach Timmy Chang said personnel specifics need refinement before conference play.
  • Despite 13 penalties that cost 138 yards, Cam Barfield scored two first career touchdowns on 16- and 33-yard plays, while UH defense held Portland State Vikings without a touchdown and limited them to about 230 yards.
  • Improving to 3-1, Hawaii extended its FCS winning streak to 24 and will host Fresno State Bulldogs next Saturday.
  • Kansei Matsuzawa debuted a kanji jersey with Mountain West Conference approval, and the matchup was the first of five Spectrum Sports broadcasts this season airing across Western U.S. markets.
