TUCSON, Ariz. -- Brandon Dawkins made the most of another start for injured Anu Solomon, especially in the first half.The Arizona redshirt sophomore ran for three touchdowns and passed for another, all in the first two quarters, and the Wildcats wrapped up nonconference play with a 47-28 victory over Hawaii on Saturday night.With Solomon out with a knee injury for the second straight game, Dawkins, completed 16 of 21 passes for 235 yards and carried 15 times for 118 more.Ive got to take advantage of my opportunity when I get it, Dawkins said, and I feel like I did so these last couple of weeks.Wildcats Freshman J.J. Taylor, thrown into extra duty with an apparent ankle injury to Nick Wilson early in the game, rushed for 168 yards in 18 carries, including a 61-yard touchdown dash down the sideline.Not surprised at all, Rodriguez said, and obviously when Nick got hurt, he was the guy. Hes a tough, competitive player. Hes got a lot of shiftiness to him. He really is mature beyond his years at this level of football.Solomon, a three-year starter, might have a hard time getting his job back.Thats a fair question but its not fair for me to answer, Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said. I think Anus a really good quarterback when hes healthy. Im hoping hes healthy so we have two starting quarterbacks.Dawkins said he felt much more comfortable than he did in his first start last week against Grambling State.Just like I always preach, the more reps I get, the better I get, he said.Rodriguez said he didnt know how long Wilson would be out so Taylor is going to get a chance to play a lot.Junior college transfer Dru Brown replaced Ikaika Woolsey at Hawaii quarterback in the second half and directed three touchdown drives. Much like Dawkins situation, the question now is whether Brown keeps the job.We were stale, we werent doing anything, Hawaii coach Nick Rolovich said. Dru went in there and played well. The bye week will be a good time for us to look at stuff. I think we are going to have a pretty good discussion, but I thought Dru was executing pretty well.The Rainbows (1-3) fell to 0-5 all-time against Arizona and have lost nine straight road games.Arizona (2-1) amassed 363 yards in the first half to lead 34-7.Dawkins rushed for 111 yards and completed 12 of 15 passes for 171 yard the first two quarters alone.The Wildcats scored TDs their first three possessionsThe drives of 88 yards in eight plays, 82 yards in six plays and 24 yards in one play used up a combined 5 minutes and 47 seconds.Dawkins scored on a 24-yard run for the first Arizona touchdown and a 14-yard run for the second.On Hawaiis next possession, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles intercepted Woolseys pass at the Hawaii 24. Tyrell Johnson scored on an end around on the next play and it was 20-0.Hawaii (1-3) got on the board with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Woolsey to freshman John Ursua with 1:10 to go in the first.But the Wildcats pulled away with two second-quarter scores. Dawkins connected with Shun Brown on a 56-yard touchdown pass play and scored again on a six-yard run.RAINBOW INFRACTIONSPenalties hurt the Rainbows all night, none more than the holding call that negated Woolseys 48-yard touchdown pass to Dylan Colie. The score would have cut Arizonas lead to 20-14 in the second quarter. Hawaii also had a touchdown pass called back in the fourth quarter due to an illegal formation call but eventually scored on the drive.In all, Hawaii was penalized 12 times for 95 yards. With a flurry of late penalties, Arizona was just as bad. The Wildcats were penalized 11 times for 105 yards.USS ARIZONAOne of six crewmen still living who were on the USS Arizona when it sank, 93-year-old Lauren Bruner, was on hand when the University of Arizona commemorated the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.Among other activities, the university auctioned off three No. 75 jerseys, three helmets and two helmet-jersey combinations, with profits going to the USS Arizona Mall Memorial.UP NEXTHawaii: Rainbows have a week off before opening Mountain West Conference play at home against Nevada.Arizona: Wildcats open Pac-12 play next Saturday night at home against Washington, a team currently at No. 8 in the AP Top 25.

The 10th-ranked German improved her record in finals to 3-5. When the New York Liberty look back at the 2016 season, Tina Charles and company might owe the Indiana Fever a huge debt of gratitude.In their last game on Thursday, the Liberty gave up 40 first-quarter points to Indiana, which tied a WNBA record. The Fever led by as many as 32 points on their way to a 98-77 shellacking of New York.But the beat-down by the Fever (13-14) might be a wakeup call reminding New York that on any given night any team can beat another.And even though the Liberty hold a comfortable 4 1/2-game lead in the East, coach Bill Laimbeers squad has learned a valuable lesson, one that could carry them deep into the playoffs.With a new-found sense of urgency, the Liberty get to test their resolve on Saturday, when they play host to the underachieving Phoenix Mercury (13-14) at 6 p.m. at Madison Square Garden.The Mercury have won three straight since play resumed after the Olympic Games. Included in that streak was an impressive win over Los Angeles, which is tied for the best record in the league at 22-5.Diana Tuarasi, who led Team USA to a gold medal (the fourth time shes stood on the winners podium), paces the way for three-time defending champing Mercury with 18.9 points per game.DeWanna Bonner (15.4 points, 5.2 rebounds per game) has proven to be trusty sidekick having scored in double figures in 11 of the last 13 games.And pattrolling the middle, Brittany Griner leads the league in blocked shots per game at 3.dddddddddddd1, hauls down 6.1 rebounds and scores a little over 13 points per game.With six Olympians on the squad, Phoenix is a formidable opponent no matter what the record is.New York had won seven of nine until laying an egg in Indiana, and if they are to get back on the winning track the Liberty will have to play much better defense.Offense is not an issue, with MVP candidate Charles prepared to carry the Liberty on her back. The perennial All-Star is second in the league in scoring at 21.1 per game, first in rebounding at 9.7 and adds 3.8 assists per game.If Charles should have an off-game, Sugar Rogers (14.5 points) is more than capable of picking up the slack. The sharpshooting Rogers is closing in on the franchise record of 78 3-pointers in a season with 74.The good news for the Liberty and bad news for the rest of the league is that Epihanny Prince, a second team All-WNBA selection last season, is rounding into form after missing 26 games because of a torn ACL.Prince has played in only two games, but before her injury, she was the second option on offense behind Charles and averaged 15 points per game as well as 3.5 assists.
