The Ole Miss Rebels have won the first two games of their series against the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors.

The Ole Miss Rebels snagged a win in Game 2 of its weekend series against the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors and the first of a doubleheader on Saturday, coming away with a 5-2 win in seven innings.

The Rebels trotted out Gunnar Dennis to start on the hill on Saturday, seeing him throw four complete innings of two-run ball. Dennis was credited with the win, and he gave way to Wes Mendes who registered the save after three innings on the mound.
