University of Hawai'i receiver Greg Salas is back at the top nationally in receiving yards, according to NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision statistics released today.

Some people will tell you Nick Rolovich's eight-touchdown performance against Brigham Young in 2001 was his finest moment with the University of Hawai'i football team.

Leon Wright-Jackson only rushed for 43 yards, but scored two touchdowns to lead the Hawaii Warriors to a 24-6 victory over the New Mexico State Aggies in a Western Athletic Conference battle at Aloha Stadium.
