I would suggest going to Tsai’s blog if you want updates on FB
It’s 7-7 with under 6 in the first quarter to play.

And can I ask that we let the live streaming issue go for today? The griping is not going to change the situation.

Am going to start a new thread with Top 25 and UA-KState.

O-line looking good. #11 looking better!

OMG, wounded duck passes and already an interception. So far nothing changed for #11. Hope there will be a short honest leash on him as stated.

if she stays in the back she’ll play in taylor’s old spot and not pass but still be a viable option from the backrow.

I only said its crazy because it’s the first match and that’s a lot of pressure to put on someone who has never played backrow for the college level.

on paper, ucsb looks like they should be better. but of course, dunno how a team is going to be until the match starts.

last year ucsb looked good on paper too … they’ve gotten some nice recruits (ruddins, rice, juley, hoffman). but then injuries struck, and their setting turned out to be real suspect.

there’s some quality players there … maybe coaching and/or chemistry issues? it’s still just the opening day … maybe they get their act together as the season goes on … still though, that’s a tough way to start the season … to choke in the latter stages of close sets …

is maglio being asked to pass? i just figure that if she’s being left in through the back row, it’s so that hawaii has an additional attack option (which they lost when taylor was sidelined).

i would think kahakai, granato and greeley (and/or sibley) would still take primary passing duties. asking maglio to pass too in the first match of the season on little practice might be too much to ask. let the others worry about passing so it frees maglio to just focus on hitting (when she’s in the back row) and on hitting/blocking (when in the front row).

no matter what, this is going to be an interesting and very non-traditional lineup. it will take time for it to gel, and coaches need to stay on top of where players need to be (or risk being called for rotation violations).

a lot of challenges, but these players are gamers! c’mon wahine!

Not sure why some people thought ucsb would be good.
