I have a daughter who lives and work in Des Moines, Iowa and she has already inquired on tickets for the Hawaii-Minnesota Regional game to be played there. Too soon?..nope, not if, but when. As an aside, she was a setter and all conference player for El Camino HS. LET’S GO BOWS.

19. as for minutes played, volleyball is not like basketball where they keep track of minutes . The stat used is matches played.
besides, the time of matches vary as do the times of sets. consider that when Anderson is in to serve and goes on an extended run, that takes away minutes from the libero.

Just wanted to know I it was legal for the 12th Man Foundation to pay for all student admission to the Texas A&M matches? If there are student athletes I the crowd, isn’t that illegal? Even if it’s $3 I thought a student athlete can’t take money from a booster, which it seems the 12th Man Foundation is.

just because I’m very tired, not going to go by number
Thank your Row13. they even had to send out a staff email to help us find the archives.

Smith is very good but they have no scholarship. Never knew Rice was a possibility. again, no scholarship

My u understanding is Smith is an invited walk-on, plans to play both indoor and beach. She also might have academic scholarships and/or financial aid.
Might be the case that she redshirts then comes in a freshman Kahakai’s senior year.

will be interesting next year with 3 setters on scholarship. Don’t know what he’s going to do.

5 & 6. Like you, I do not like the new style of the newspaper either and not only did I post feedback, I also asked for an answer to my question as to where we can find news archives. They are not available any more. Anyone else knows how to find them? Please inform.

That’s too bad for Annie, I really think she could have grown into a phenomenal force if the injury didn’t occur. Seems like she got the short end with that rule. Maybe the ncaa should change n go by minutes played. If the minutes played added up to 10 games then I could c not being eligible. I think if we added annies minutes played, she probably would have only played a total of 4 or 5 gms. Seems like she will b penalized twice. Cant play cuz injury n Lose a yr of Eligibility. Sad.

15. Not to be a smart aleck, but if Emma Smith is as good as you say she is going to be, how is it that she is a walk on? Wouldn’t someone have seen her potential as the best libero in 4 years and given her a scholarship? Not like she is from a no-name high school either.

16. Depends on who the OHs and MBs are. Don’t think she will be starting next year, and we lose our All-American after that. Not sure who the next terminator is after her. Also, we had an incredible setter in Kamana’o and no national championships during her tenure. Takes a lot of talent at multiple positions these days.

Yeah, I know I sound negative, but I think the euphoria of the upcoming tournament is inflating some opinions. I just want to see UH take apart TCU and TAMU/CorpChristi this weekend and live somewhat in the present for a bit.

Three great recruits, but I think Norene can takes us to the “promised land”. I also think that despite the disadvantage of being on the road and playing in a hostile environment, that we will prevail this weekend. We will see if I have good judgement or just wishful thinking. I really hope that I am right!
