UH-Hilo Vulcan Athletics won’t allow spectators to watch the January basketball games at Afook-Chinen Civic Auditorium for men’s and women’s teams.

Included are the Vulcans men’s basketball game against Holy Names University on Thursday, January 6th, and women’s and men’s games against Biola University on Monday January 10th.

This will also include Vulcan games against Academy of Art University on Thursday, January 13th, and the Dominican University game on Monday, January 17th.

The decision was made in response to the increase, on the Big Island, and spread of Omicron variant of Covid-19.

It also reflects an effort to provide safe measures for student-athletes, visiting team members, and the Big Island community in general.
