HONOLULU -- Four men, including a Honolulu resident, died in a three-car crash in Northern California on Saturday, according to officials.

The crash happened shortly before midnight in Napa County.

One of the victims was Luke Nishikawa, 22, of Makiki.

The victims attended Pacific Union College, a Seventh-day Adventist liberal arts college in Angwin, Calif.

The students had just finished playing basketball at the school's gym and were on their way to Safeway in St. Helena to eat when the crash happened.

The four students were in a black Honda Civic. The driver lost control of the speeding car, crossed the centerline and collided with a Toyota pickup truck that was hit from behind by a white Honda Civic, police said.

The four men in the black Civic died in the crash.

A medical team airlifted the driver of the pickup truck to a nearby hospital in critical condition. He later upgraded to stable, police said.

The driver of the pickup truck and the driver of the white Honda Civic were driving drunk, police said.

Police arrested the driver of the white Civic. The pickup driver faces charges when he is released from the hospital, authorities said.

Nishikawa was the leader of a campus outreach program called Homeless Ministries. Nishikawa had gone to the San Francisco Bay Area with a group of students to feed the homeless, according to the school.

Authorities identified the other victims as Boaz Pak, 20, of Hidden Valley Lake, Calif., Simon Son, 19, of Hidden Valley Lake, Calif., and Chong Shin, 20, of Aloha, Ore.

Nishikawa spent his summers as a surf instructor with the Hawaiian Fire Surf School.

His friends said he always knew how to have a good time.

"He taught me how to do a headstand on a surfboard and that's something I will never forget," friend Hallie Silva said.

A prayer service was held on Pacific Union College's campus for Nishikawa and the other students killed.

Flags were set at half-staff at Hawaii Mission Academy where his former teachers remembered their standout student.

"He was always really positive that was just Luke typically positive about everything. He really enjoyed life," English teacher Peter Cheeseman said.

On a recent visit home Nishikawa visited his alma mater.

"He came just to say hi. He comes and he gives you a great big hug and he says 'I'm going to go play basketball, but I just want to stop by and say hi,'" history teacher Cynthia Nylen said. "I was proud of him and that I knew he was going place I think he had his heart in the right place when dealing with people and his love of God."
