† 2004 WAC tournament winner |
Hawaii failed to qualify for the NCAA tournament, but was selected to participate in the NIT, the school's fourth consecutive appearance in the postseason. The Rainbow Warriors won their first game against #25 Utah State, the first road victory over a ranked opponent in school history.[2] Hawaii won again to advance to the NIT quarterfinals, but were eliminated by eventual NIT champion Michigan, 88–73.[3]
