DanLduck No. 1 Share Posted September 14, 2023 So a question, which is it, Warriors or Rainbow Warriors of U of Hawaii? According to my research, UH Warriors added Rainbow to their name after one appeared over the field after beating Oregon State. Then in 2000, they dropped the "Rainbow" for football, men's bball, and men's volleyball and baseball. The women's teams were called Rainbow Wahine. But now every team seems to be the Rainbow Warriors (or wahine). So, enquiring mind, (my own) wants to know, are we playing Rainbow Warriors or simply Warriors this week?

DrJacksPlaidPants Moderator No. 2 Share Posted September 14, 2023 (edited) I know why they dropped the “Rainbow” from men’s sports, but since it delves into politics, I will let you guys figure that one out on your own. However, they have since had a change of heart and are now called the Rainbow Warriors. They’ve been known to go back to their retro uniforms which look pretty cool.
