Awesome that a libero, esp our libero got the honors, don’t recall a libero getting this nod in a long time, but just re-started following the men’s game more this year.

8. Thanks for the clarification on Wellenreiter too bad he didn’t get a chance for some pay back like Jones got.

Congrats to Kanetake.

As for Zarkovic, his left ankle still swollen. He said playing last night it didn’t hurt that much but he was sore this morning. Said he didn’t expect to play, even though he joked with Wade that he’d be ready to go in if needed.
We joked about him looking like Clark Kent on the bench with his glasses and then taking off his sweats to be like Superman. Very nice young man.

Also got a chance to chat with Jones and Zarkovic. If you watch TV tonight, Wade explains how Jones came to be on the roster, including his unfiltered: CSUN cut him, tossed him on the trash pile. Jones said that Stork runs the team like a business and that the business decision was to go a younger route. Jones said he thought he still had one good year in the MPSF. He is a grad student in kinesiology, hoping to be a PE teacher/coach or athletic training. He said he was very pumped up to play against his former team and some of this best friends, including one who is his beach partner. Had a lot of good things to say about his current teammates and how talented the entire roster is.

To Smithy, who wrote he/she heard something different than the account I passed along about the setter change. Wade said today the pins were struggling as was the setter. It is easier to change one guy than two so he swapped the setters. And then ended up subbing for Hartley and Fey.

Was doing some interviews with Wahine basketball and ran into Wade, Jones and Zarkovic at various times.
From Wade in answer to some of the comments posted on the previous thread.
To Rayson: As I wrote earlier, and Wade confirmed, the reason that Wellenreiter wasn’t allowed to play was that he was wearing the wrong uniform number. The roster had him at No. 17, uniform was 15. Apparently they have four sets of uniforms and three of those have a No. 17. For some reason, when the new set with the kapa print was ordered, they didn’t order a No. 17. Wellenreiter wore 15. Wade said he realized the mistake when Wellenreiter went into the sub box. he told the manager to go get the No. 17 jersey but manager came back and said there was no No. 17.
So from now on the official roster will have his Nos. as 15/17 and it won’t be a problem any longer.
