Won and done: Behind Alvarado and Liilii, UHH beats HPU before rain hits

Kelsey Walling/ UH-Hilo pitcher Valerie Alvarado winds up Sunday during the Vulcans’ 6-1 win against Hawaii Pacific.

With rain on the forecast, the UH-Hilo softball team was lucky to get one game in, and it was a master class in hitting by Vevesi Liilii, the senior slugger, who had a .523 slugging percentage in 21 games during the pandemic shortened season last year.
