Quotes about the Warriors in the Hawaii papers (Estes was Warriors' MVP)

HA Note: "The Hawai'i football team's ironman — center John Estes — yesterday was named winner of the Alec Waterhouse award as the Warriors' most valuable player for 2009. Estes started all 54 games of a UH career that ended with Saturday's 51-10 loss to Wisconsin. In a study by UH's sports information department, Estes' streak is the longest in NCAA Division I-A history."


Praising the defense he faced in every practice when accepting the MVP award at their awards banquet, John Estes said:
"They were a pain ... but I (benefitted from) every second of it." (HA)


About how they were motivated to beat Wisconsin to make the Hawaii Bowl, Greg Salas said:
"We were fired up to come out and play, get to a bowl game, and it just didn't come out the way we wanted it." (HSB)


HSB Note: "The Warriors closed the season with the annual team banquet at the Sheraton Waikiki. They have another meeting this morning to formally wrap up "a season full of challenges," as head coach Greg McMackin described his second year in charge."
