94. hard to gauge UCLA based on who they were playing the past two days. Freshman setter impressed Shoji.
Sealy was impressed with UH’s athleticism.
Hard to believe he’s been gone 6 years.
Sealy said they were still trying to find themselves and that they weren’t who they are against LMU. he’s had a couple of days surfing. He used to live in Kailua and told him Popoi’a and Na Mokulua were pumping although somewhat closed out.

99. and the passing was better which allowed the setting to be better.
Magill is somewhat one dimensional but this is only her second year in this system. feel she was underutilized at UA.

Something Chris and Kanoa mentioned during the broadcast is that Magill does great considering she mainly only hits the one set with an occasional three.

The setting against American was much improved over Iowa.

Maglio has such a upside. She has the quickness to get out to the pin. She needs to play!!

#96 I really like the play of Casey also. With the exception of the first shank, she did a great job of receiving/passing. Very impressive! Huge upside potential of a 6’3″ OH who can play all 6 rotations and be potential primary passer. Outstanding MH/OH in high school. Goes well for the future.

Tai showed us the real talent she brings to the court when she is “on”. I am really impressed with the coaching that has gone into this project. Dave has done a great job in keeping all three middles playing and learning. I hope he continues to give Castillo court time. She is a legit. 6 rotation player who could be the next Greeley. I love watching this team grow and evolve. I am starting to think that Higgins has improved as much as anyone. Anyway I love her spunk! Next stop, beat Cindy’s alma mater.

Cappellino is only 5 -9, but it doesn’t seem to hinder her effectiveness. Smith is only a freshman and looked good on some blocks.

Who is the young man who is seen instructing the UH girls during the timeouts ? He’s in the team picture but not listed on the coaching roster.

It pays to play pepper with the coach, as Gianna played more last night.

Duly impressed by UCLA’s Fast Attack. Very good passing and the low arcing sets continually gave UCLA a 1-on-1. UCLA scored at will; MH, OH, OPP, it did not matter. Hawaii will have their hands full, Bruins have 2 each 6’5″ MHs and Claire Felix (6’6″)

As long as Tai uses the “force” and not think so much about everything she’s doing, she’ll do fine. She proved it tonight. She can be the ol’ Tai and be back to the six rotation player she was before. Look at all the smiles that were predominating their huddles. Get her and several other players like the freshmen, Higgins, Mitchem and Maglio to just use the “force” and they’ll annihilate UCLA! They just have to trust in their instincts and we will see a sixth win! :o)

they are giving it a try for now. that she doesn’t have to be in the passing formation has taken some pressure off her. she hasn’t had a hitting error in two matches. the 727 (8-0-11) was a career high tonight.
