Hawaii 3, CSU Fullerton 0
Match starting in about 45. Mostly Hawaii fans here. Free parking too on weekends, what a concept. Like how they’re redone the floor with orange palm trees.
Had lunch with former UH AD Jim Donovon, now the Fullerton AD. Nice to catch up with him.
Don’t forget that you can catch the match on ESPN3 www.espn.go.com

Looks like Kahakai will be the libero tonight.
Lot of UH fans, including former Wahine Kristal Attwood. who brought her two young daughters. they both said they want to be Wahine when they grow up.
No other changes in the lineup, Manu-Olevao, Higgins, Magill, Taylor, Greeley, Adolpho
They are leaving Taylor in to serve and play back row. probably see her on the 3-meter.
wahine looking alive so far
Guinasso in as the first serving sub.
Hawaii up 15-12 at the TTO
Withers has taken 12 swings for the Titans, with 4 kills.
5. perhaps thats by design? baby gs county, need some good serves in so bring in the wahine gunner.
Huff is in for Greeley
and Mendoza in for Huff to serve
Manu-Olevao hits just wide. UH up 19-16. TO Wahine. definitely a different vibe than last night.
huff is in??
Audio is actually at: nbcsportsradiohawaii.com
wow higgins had too much power slamming it down on an overpass
hey cindy whats your opinion? since na wahine were beaten to near death, would that make them stronger?
sorry, keep getting knocked off line.
Thanks Wen, forgot about football
14. no idea what you’re asking.
Taylor blocked, Titans have closed to 23-21
Huff is in for Greeley. Taylor hits wide. it’s 24-22
Taylor in on the block UH wins 25-22
CSUN wins Set 1 over Long Beach 25-22.
15. i was asking considering last night, uci was about to administer the coup de grace to hawai’i but thats when the wahine fought back and then dominated. would that make the bows experience and/or playing ability stronger?
UCSB up 1-0 at UC Rivers.
19. I suppose. They have to feel good about pulling that out.
UH up 9-4 , TO Fullerton.
Hawaii on a 4-0 run, ace by Greeley makes it 14-6
Maglio, Huff and Long all in. and now Passi and Koelsch. very young out there. 4 freshmen
Maglio ends it 25-14. Maglio with a block, rebound came back and she put down the overpass
Also in house, former Wahine Kari Gregory. She’s finishing up her Ph.D in physical therapy down in San Marcos.
CSUN-Beach tied at 1. 49ers win Set 2 25-18
UCSB up 2-0 at Riverside.
Titans can’t return Kahakai’s serve, UH up 13-10. TO Fullerton.
i want to see kahakai use her jump serve like one she used in vs new mexico
Withers into the net, UH up 18-12. TO Fullerton
UH calls timeout at 23-15. Huff, Maglio, Long in. and now Passi and Koelsch.
UH may be out of subs at this point
UH wins 25-18.
ekahi elua aloha
why did shoji call a timeout when na wahine had an 8 point lead
Beach beat Matadors…Kinda knew they would…
Good going Wahine. Don’t look like CSUN will be to much help to the Wahine.
Can’t wait to next week end.
For those who have been saying that CSU is overrated, I guess you were right…UNLV beat them in four…
33. According to Kathy Gregory, Shoji called time out to get more reserves in. She said that getting players into the game even only for the last two points is great for team morale. I agree with her
Let’s hope Dave doesn’t retire at the end of this year. Otherwise, UH is going to be looking for a football, basketball and volleyball coach. Ouch!!!
I hope that Olivia gets the nomination and nod for the BWC PotW.
He did call a timeout, in part because of all the subs, but it was more to avoid being given a yellow card for delay of game. He wanted to make sure everyone knew where they were in the rotation because they could have easily been out of rotation when he used a different sub pattern.
38. My guess is there’s some coaches out there waiting for Shoji to retire so they can apply for that position.
So UH beat a team with a rpi 193, which is one spot weaker than Kent State (192) of the Mid-American Conf. but one stronger than Chicago (194) of the Horizon Conf. Can’t see this road win helping the Wahine’s NCAA rpi. But I do think the 3-2 win over UCI (rpi 106) will be factored in negatively in systems which take into account sets won and loss — such as Pablo’s?
BTW: Glad to hear Coach imply (to my way of thinking) that his team’s goal right now is to win 1 of the 33 at-large bids. LBSU is in the driver’s seat to secure 1 of the 31 automatics, and there’s no way the NCAA Selection Committee is going to award more than 1 — if even 1 — at-large to the Big West this year . . . especially after last year’s tournament, in which none of the 3 Big West reps made it out of their respective sub-regionals.
Sure there’s still hope that LBSU will be upset along their merry way, and the automatic berth could still go to the Rainbows. About as much hope as Pele changing her mind and — just before running over Pahoa Village — stopping dead in her tracks.
Go Bows! Be gone Pele!
@OrbitalRipZ: this is why winning away from home is so vital, to impress the NCAA selection committee. Hawaii’s travel schedule may well be the cause of their slow starts (based upon last year’s 3 losses on the road and this year’s 2 losses.) Even if Hawaii wins out and receives an invitation they will be sent away to play. If Hawaii uses the same travel schedule the results may be the same.
43. Do not understand the obsession with the travel schedule. This is how they’ve done it for 30-plus years. Sometimes they take a redeye, sometimes they take the afternoon flight that gets in around 10 p.m. As someone pointed out, no on was complaining when Hawaii was winning all those road matches all these years.
The travel is pretty tame in the Big West compared to what it was in the WAC and they had to go to Ruston, LA.
Besides, Hawaii’s been having slow starts when playing at home. can’t blame the travel for that.
42. Shoji has said all season the goal is to make the tournament. He is being realistic when looking at the standings and seeing that it will be tough to catch The Beach. And he has long said that they have to control what they can control, which is winning. His comment about losing to UCI was, with their RPI of 106 in this week, it would be considered a bad loss and UH’s lower RPI could knock them out of an at-large bid
Ahh… Kathy Gregory. Just love how she moderates these matches for ESPN.
They need to give her more exposer. Her comments as a former player and
veteran coach are sooo… on point!
She was pretty funny this past weekend. She’s enjoying her ‘retirement’ I think she tells it like it is and was very brutally honest on and off camera.
