Hawaii fans will see just how good this new Athletic Director is, cause there are at least 3, maybe 4, Athletic teams that need new Head Coaches, and fast.

This SandBows team is not going anywhere. They will be lucky to win more matches then they lose. The new Athletic Director needs to start looking for a new Head Coach, and in a hurry.

Hawaiis Beach team is really seeing a decline in competitiveness… I actually found today's results to be encouraging! They remained very competitive against a perennially tough LMU team. UCLA was a blowout but that's ok. And our 1s actually went above my expectations, taking 2 great teams to competitive 3rd sets. With Thelle coming back from injury and hopefully reorienting our lineup as such, the Beachbows can be very competitive. It's the just 1st match of the season!

Fingers crossed we get a few big wins this weekend or it could be a long season!

Thelle is back!
1: Santer/Embry 2: Glagau/Thelle (Glagau played 3's last so I think she can only move up 1) 3: Maidment/Lawrenz 4: Wagoner/Amiatu 5: Ali/Napoleon

4-1 Loss to Stanford, win came in Flight 1 (again).
Had hopes it would be closer after UH won 3 of the first 5.

I don't follow the BeachBows much but it does seem that the program is in a steady decline as far as the rankings go. For the first few years of the program we were perennially ranked in the top 5 and finished ranked either 3rd or 4th and the last couple of years our ranking has been dropping and we haven't made it past the round of 16 in the tournament. I hope this year reverses that trend. Too early to tell now but at the end of the season if we drop further then steps need to be taken or the BeachBows will end up like the indoor team - not ranked at all anymore....

Aiyah! The results from today's matches! We're getting our clocks cleaned in our own tournament.

They've become the easy fodder win in their own tournament.
It's one thing to lose, it's another to lose 0-10 and 1-9 type games in sets, something that's never happened before.

...and it doesn't work. UCLA sweeps Hawaii 4-0 (time called as UCLA had the match). Only flight to get a win was the 2's. 3's made it kinda close.
Looks like big problems in the lower flights.
