Hawaii wrapped up the Hawaii Pacific Health Rainbow Wahine Classic with a 4-3, eight-inning win over Columbia at Rainbow Wahine Softball Stadium on Sunday. The win ended a tough tournament where Hawaii went just 1-4.

The Rainbow Wahine (18-13) had to rally against the Lions (2-8) by scoring the tying run in the bottom of the seventh and the winning run in the eighth. Both teams meet again in a Tuesday doubleheader starting at 6 p.m.

The Lions, who went 0-4 in the tournament, rallied for three runs in the top of the fourth to take a 3-2 lead. Hawaii tied it in the bottom of the seventh when Sarina Jaramillo singled to right and Keiki Carlos scored from third when the throw from Mackensy Lakian went off the glove of catcher Liz Caggiano. But Columbia pitcher Tessa Kroll induced a fly out and pop up from Heather Morales and Leisha Liilii, two of Hawaii’s power hitters, to end the seventh. 

Hawaii pitcher Brittany Hitchcock retired all three batters she faced in the eighth. With the international tiebreaker rule in effect, Liilii started off the bottom of the eighth at second base and advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by pinch hitter Rachel Lack. Lindsey Willmon was hit by a pitch and Kristina Akiona reached on an error to load the bases. Tayana Mata then drew a walk on a 3-1 count to score Lililii. 

Heather Morales batted 3-for-4 to lead Hawaii and was named to the all-tournament team with Jaramillo.
