24. they are well aware that their middle attack is lacking. They are using two converted outsides, including a left-hander. Will take time for the connection to happen.

Noblesol, thanks for the link. Able to watch the whole game on my big tv screen thru chrome cast. I agree that they are much more improved in all aspects of the game. Looking forward to their next 6 home games. GO BOWS!!!

I know the team already knows this but just saying it, I hope we can really establish our middles as an attack, especially with that south paw from UK. Our OH are good, if we can establish our middles as a valid weapon, UH will have a good balanced offense!

McKellar stepped it up as well. Much better team outing. Improved blocking, better serve receive and passing, more digs, and more presence in the middle. Pepperdine fell apart near the end, got down early in the last set and they lost composure. There seemed to be some chatter going on between the teams and the refs. Hawaii got a yellow card at one point. Noticeable crowd support from the Bow’s fans. They had something to cheer for last night.

Great way to bounce back, and Siki was a monster, great to see the freshmen step it up and have another awesome match after his first bad match.

Sam Lagana filled in at the last minute for the normal Pepperdine guy. Sam a longtime AVP announcer, is the associate Vice Chancellor at Pepperdine. Agree it was hard to listen to his pronunciations and kind of surprised no one mentioned it to him.
19. Don’t see a UH media guide online. It would have been up to the broadcaster to ask UH coaches how to pronounce the names.

Does UH still issue a media guide with the pronunciations?

@Jmy I couldn’t concentrate b/c I kept trying to figure out who he was talking about the entire match.. Francis—-long-pause—-KOvic. and zarKOvic. At least he was consistent on where he used inflection in his tone to pronounce both names. Did you catch him trying to pronounce Mamane’s name last nights match? I seriously had to look it up online cuz I didn’t know who he was talking about, and he did apologize to the family for butchering that name. BUT no one told him he was butchering Siki & Jennings names two nights in a row… Poor guy lol
