The excitement is building in Hawaii as the University of Hawaii's football team remains undefeated. With 7 wins and zero losses, the Hawaii fans are excited to see the warriors in action this Saturday, October 27 for the Homecoming game against the New Mexico State Aggies.
The UH football team, the Rainbow Warriors is currently ranked number 14, due to a great cohesive team and a talented quarterback--
Colt Brennan. Besides being a gifted athlete, Colt Brennan is an amazing person having admitted to mistakes in his past, and moving on to become a hero to many.
A recent article Colt Brennan, local hero puts it this way. Colt is always in the limelight but manages to deflect it back on his teammates. He chose ohana (family) over money by choosing to finish his senior year at UH instead of making millions of dollars playing for the NFL. He took three semesters of Samoan to talk with his lineman, he got dreadlocks to bond with his receivers and he got the Hawaiian Islands dyed into his hair.

Nice one, Cheryl! I think the players are all awesome but Colt keeps earning more brownie points with me every time I read something new about him. Thank you for sharing the great links and for sharing the excitement! I printed the SI story so I could read it while walking to work. :) People must think I'm really weird 'cause I'm always reading while I'm walking. I do need to try not to get run over though. :)

FYI - I found this link where you can vote for Colt to win the Heisman Trophy: https://r.espn.go.com/espn/contests/theheismanvote/index
You have to register to vote, but your registration also gives you a chance to win a trip to NYC to the trophy ceremony.
