7:47 p.m.

The loooooongest first half comes to an end with the Warriors ahead, 21-14.

7:30 p.m.

In the ol’ switch-a-roo, on first=and-goal from the 2, slotback John Ursua motioned behind center Taaga Tuulima — just as he did last week, when he scored on a sneak. This time, Cole McDonald took the shotgun snap and fired to slotback Cedric Byrd on an out route for a TD and a 21-14 UH lead.

The scoring pass capped an 11-play, 96-yard drive.

PREVIOUS COVERAGE

In one of the earliest homecoming games in recent memory, the Rainbow Warriors play host to Duquesne today at Aloha Stadium.

Both teams constructed 3-1 records in different ways. The Warriors played two of their first four games on the road. The Dukes, an FCS member, will be playing their second FBS team this season. As an FBS member, the Warriors may offer up to 85 scholarships. The Dukes are limited to divvying the financial value of 45 scholarships. But the Dukes have 13 players who started their college careers at FBS schools, including quarterback Daniel Parr and linebacker Brett Zanotto.
