Fans of University of Hawaii football haven’t had much to cheer about in recent years, but perhaps advice from Blue Angels pilot Lt. Matt Suyderhoud can help. Talking on Tuesday to students of Maryknoll School, from which he graduated in 2001, the 33-year-old Suyderhoud recalled playing for the school’s volleyball team and how one year it went the whole season without winning a single game. But losing, he said, builds character, and taught him the importance of staying positive. Negativity, Suyderhoud said, can be contagious and undermine efforts to improve.

So if nothing else, watching the UH Rainbow Warriors continue to lose more than win under Coach Norm Chow (3-9 his first year, 1-11 his second, 4-9 his third and 2-4 so far this year) has been good for building character, both for the players and the fans.

Yeah, that’s the ticket. It helps build character.

Fisher Hawaii moves — across the street

It’s far from the sky-busting “iconic” tower once envisioned by a former governor, but the incoming tenant at 690 Pohukaina St. stands to get a warm welcome.

Come Monday, Fisher Hawaii will move into its new temporary digs, across the street from its current Cooke Street location, which closes on Sunday. Fans of the office-supplies warehouse will be happy to know the new store will be about the same size, with as many parking spots. The two-year lease should end the eviction drama when Fisher’s Cooke Street landlord, Kamehameha Schools, filed suit in February after Fisher refused to vacate despite its lease expiring in July 2014.
