Hawaii disciplines 3 players ahead of Cal game in Sydney

College Football, Hawaii Rainbow Warriors

SYDNEY -- Hawaii was without three key players Saturday in the opening game of the college football season against Cal for unspecified disciplinary reasons.

A Rainbow Warriors spokesman said just before the game began that safety Daniel Lewis Jr., linebacker Jerrol Garcia-Williams and tight end Metuisela 'Unga were not with the team at the Olympic stadium.

The spokesman said all three players would have seen considerable action during the game, which marked the coaching debut of former Hawaii quarterback Nick Rolovich.

The spokesman would not say whether the disciplinary issues took place during the team's stay in Sydney or whether the players faced any future action by the university.

Hawaii went on to lose to CalĀ 51-31.
