Four UH soccer players named All-WAC
The 2004 women’s soccer all-WAC teams were announced at the conference tournament banquet with four Rainbow Wahine earning recognition. Senior midfielder Joelle Sugai and junior forward Natasha Kai earned first-team honors, while senior forward Robyn deHay and senior defender Krystalyn Ontai were named to the second team.
It was the third straight year that Kai earned first team honors. Sugai, who was named preseason all-WAC along with Kai during the summer, gained all-WAC honors for the second straight season.
It was also back to back honors for deHay, a first-team selection last year.
