UH should provide a live stream like they do for softball and womens basketball for mainland and outer island fans and fans that can’t make it to the SSC.
they should but they don’t
Just surprising that OCSports won’t do Sunday matches.
UH up 12-19 in S1. TO Pepperdine
Pepperdine on a 4-0 run, leads 15-14 at the TTO
the worst call no one saw. Zarkovic’s serve landed in front of the linesman’s foot and he called it out. sadly no replay
Hawaii went back up at 20-18. TO Waves.
Waves up 22-21. TO UH
service errors are killing UH this set.

They had 5 SEs to Pepp’s 2. Makes a difference when when losing by 2.

Another deuce game. UH served for the set at 24-24. Waves tie it at 24. UH up 25-24
Zarkovic serves long. it’s 25-25
sorry you folks aren’t seeing this. Hartley flew out of nowhere for a solo block. at 28-27 then servees into the net. 28-28. Pepperdine with the service error. UH up 29-28
Zarkovic finally ends it 30-28.
Pepperdine up 15-13 at the TTO
Pepperdine maintaining a 2-point lead. Up 17-15. TO UH
Hawaii pulls away 20-19. TO Pepperdine
Come on hawaii, don’t let this go to 5
UH serving for the match at 26-25
That was disappointing. UH served for the match twice. Waves held, winning 29-27
Siki 3 straight errors to end that set?? SMH
He’s usually more clutch than that.
Holt on the overpass. UH up 5-3. TO Waves
Hawaii up 8-4 at the changeover
It’s 9-4 TO Waves.
Is sedore sick cindy? He seems to be struggling tonight and someone on VT mentioned flu like symptoms
These service errors are killing me.
Pepperdine back within one point. COME ON UH, please don’t lose this lead
OK this choking thing needs to stop, come on UH.
This would be a complete collapse if they can’t pull this one out.
To be fair, another bad call went against Hawaii. Zarkovic appeared to get a touch on his attack, and the far linesman (same one that missed the ace call) signaled touch but then when asked by the up ref, said no.
Hartley blocked. it’s 12-12
Davis holt may not be an offensive threat, but he sure makes up for it in his block. His block saves matches at times
Another service error, unbelievable.
Why did Charlie wait til score was 12-11 to call a TO? He should’ve stopped the momentum earlier. Lets go Warriors ONE MORE POINT!
Holt with a solo, gives Hawaii another match point at 14-12.
Franciskovic with a a service error. it’s 14-13 TO UH
Zarkovic with the kill. 15-13
Thank goodness! A Win!
Man, I wish this match was at least streamed online!
Hawaii had 22 service errors. WAY too much. Also, they need to maintain leads. When its time to close out, this team has a tendency to falter. But none the less, great win tonight!
Great win. Hawaii tied for first with UC Irvine.
7 aces, 22 SEs, 4 in Set 5. the Waves with 4 aces, 14 SEs.
47. yes, bottom line, they pulled out a win. have won 8 straight.
Winning the regular season is so key, not only for hosting privileges in the MPSF tourney but it would assure UH a bid to the national tournament. This win was HUGE!!!!
Tough WIN
Swings to Win in Game 4 And 5…And The WIN…came through Both Nights — improved from UCI and USC… and TIED for FIRST in MPSF…
I would like to think / believe that the flu week had significant impact on all the service errors, uncharacteristic hitting errors and missed digs… That a Healthy Warrior Team (down the road, in the playoffs) will perform at a better level…
Who was sick? was it Brook? He has been uncharacteristically error prone lately.
I am surprised the entire team doesn’t take flu shots before the season begins,
I hope the warriors move up to the top 4 in the next poll and the wahine sandbows to number 1.
Congratulations to the coaching staff this weekend for their courage to make changes in order to beat a very senior team!
Hartley makes me smile every time he’s on the court. I don’t know why. What a performance last night!
Congratulations to the fans who showed up last night and were treated to a great match. How did it compare to the USC matches?
Mahalo for the color, Cindy.
Two great matches against a very talented and typically huge yet athletic team coached by Marv Dumphy who has some recent national championships to show for it. Hawaii did it with heart and chemistry and using its own talent smartly. Wade’s changes in the blocking schemes both nights and use of personell helped make a difference. The heart and focus of the team though got them the win– especially in match like yesterday (that drew a nice crowd).
54. thought the atmosphere with SC and Pepperdine very similar. Very loud. Definitely a different crowd than the large one at women’s basketball, which was very good as well. but just a different feel.
55. Had a nice chat with Dunphy prior to Sunday. He’s 67, said he’ll keep coaching for as long as he can relate to his players. Really intelligent guy
Pepperdine’s titles (not all that recent) came in 78, 85, 86, 98, 05.
rank #4 now =) with one #1 vote by UCI head coach who interestingly likes to continue to undersell his team and rank themselves at #7. Go Bows!
