FINAL: Vanderbilt 63, Hawaii 10

Vanderbilt crushed the Rainbow Warriors 63-10 tonight in front of the first sell-out crowd (9,346) to attend a game at Clarence T.C. Ching Athletic Complex.

Commodores quarterback Mike Wright threw for two touchdowns and ran for two more and Vanderbilt turned two Dedrick Parson fumbles into scoop-and-score touchdowns to end Hawaii’s seven-game winning streak in season openers.
