33. don’t think setter but I don’t know. She would be 2021. As mentioned a junior.
they do need another setter for next season.
35. enjoyed the article too.
36. The good thing about Van Sickle returning was Hellvig didn’t have to carry the load and she was moved to right side, more of her natural position. She also isn’t playing back row, not in the serve-receive, not serving so that lessens the wear and tear you were seeing when she had to take so many swings.
plus Hawaii’s passing has gotten better, allowing for the middle attack.
Also think Hawaii’s out-of-system play has greatly improved.

35* Yes great story. About him sleeping in Shoji’s basement. And the best is how men and women respond differently to criticism.

LBSU getting swept by Na Wahine was a surprise for sure. Na Wahine is just on a roll after having a bye week. I believe they’re peaking at the right time!

IMHO, the great thing about this team is for most of this season, after Jolie’s injury occured, they had to “reinvent” themselves, sort of speak, as the season went along. With that, players had to step up which they did. This team is less predictable because Hawaii “spreads the wealth”. There is no one dominate “go to” player because this team has a few of those. I mean Hanna was the “go to” after Jolie’s injury, but as the season went along her kills started to slowly dwindle not because she wasn’t playing well, but because players were rising to the challenge. It’s pretty impressive what this coaching staff has done throughout the season.

Wahine swept LBSU, final-weeks giant killer, displaying a superb, well balanced, dominant performance by team-effort, to reach the 1st milestone, ‘Sole BigWest Champ’ beating pre-season-odds. CONGRATULATION to Wahine Squad! Still long way to go in this season as NEXT MILESTONE is to prove that current wahine team is worthy of being Top-8 in whatever National ranking by passing 1st three rounds of post-season.

Omg…is that who was standing there with Kate?! Another setter I hope!!! I was looking all over for Kate, then at the end, I saw them on the floor and saw Kate hanging with the taller girl with a Hawaii sweat shirt on. Who was that?!

Got a chance to say hello to 2020 commit Kate Lang. She really enjoyed being at senior night. Can’t wait to play here. Think she and the team will be at football Saturday. And no, don’t know who the recruit was other than she’s a junior and maybe 6-1-ish
Might be a good sign that she is wearing a Hawaii sweatshirt

Congrats all around, to the players and to the coaches for peaking at the right time. Now comes finals, then NCAAs. Only concern is: are they peaking too early?
