Neil Uskali spaced seven hits in seven innings and Josh Rojas drove in two runs to lift the University of Hawaii baseball team to a 3-2 victory over Nevada today at Les Murakami Stadium.

The Rainbow Warriors won three of four in this inter-conference season to improve to 18-9. They open Big West play against Cal Poly on Friday.

Uskali and Jackson Rees are competing for the third spot in the starting rotation. The Big West uses a three-game format for each series. Uskali (4-1) allowed two runs — only one earned — struck out a career-high seven and did not issue a walk.

Dylan Thomas pitched the final two innings for the save.
