Hawaii 10 6 7 023

Hawaii lead from the outset, posting the team's second straight victory to end the Warriors' 2012 campaign with a 3-9 record.

Following a Mike Edwards interception in the endzone that derailed the Jaguars opening drive, Sterling Jackson put the Warriors on the board first with a one yard plunge up the middle at the 9:58 mark in the games' opening quarter.

From there, Hawaii would build up a 16-0 advantage going into halftime, courtesy of a trio of Tyler Hadden field goals, booted from 41, 42 and 40 yards respectively.

The Warriors added another score at the 7:14 mark in the third, as Scott Schroeder connected with Chris Gant on a 26 yard pass play to increase the margin to 23-0.

South Alabama avoided the shutout by finding the endzone in the fourth quarter, on CJ Bennett's 3 yard pass to Wes Saxton and Michel Chapuseaux's extra point to complete the games' scoring.

Warriors' running back Joey Iosefa rushed for 97 yards on 18 carries and Billy Ray Stutzmann added 5 receptions for 88 yards as Hawaii rolled up 410 yards of total offense, with a nicely balanced split of 229 on the ground and 181 through the air.

Schoeder finished the evening 10-of-21 for 131 yards and a TD, and threw two interceptions.

Art Laurel led the Warrior defense with 7 tackles and 2 sacks, and Mike Edwards added 5 tackles to go along with an interception and a forced fumble.
