Not necessarily, was Caylen Alexander a 1st, 2nd, or 3rd Team AA last year? Caylen Alexander is just now starting to get known. Caylen Alexander is putting up some impressive offensive numbers, this year. What makes Caylen's offensive numbers that much more impressive is that, she is basically the only offensive threat the Wahine have. Caylen is basically doing this against 2, or even 3 blockers. you’re ridiculous, not every player jumps ship on a team. Alexander praises Hawaii in a recent podcast for making her the player she is it makes zero sense to leave a team you’re a star at, unless you have spoke to Caylen and she has said that a first team all American title is all she wants as a player then you sound really dumb. I am just saying, it is a possibility, NOT that it is going to occur. BUT it is on Robyn's shoulders, as the Head Coach, to make sure Caylen Alexander has a really good supporting cast of players next season. Robyn CANNOT just sit back and go with just the returning players, cause that will not do. The Wahine Team needs a Middle to complement Mili, and they desperately need an Opposite.

I'm only watching the set that Hawaii won and wow... I don't remember Texas games looking bad. The camera is like lagging so things are looking glitchy. And than the "point Texas" graphic is just a waste of time and hard to read.

Texas fans Please root for us against Baylor Plz Rooting for you to resist the urge to never want to return to Hawaii after spending a day in Waco. I have heard the mammoth bones are cool. Probably worth a minor detour if you're already in town www.nps.gov/waco/index.htm

Just tuned in, can someone explain to me Texas' rotations and DS subs? I see Kahahawai in playing OPP, but earlier I saw Rutherford?

The second half of the match was filmed much better so I think the production quality will improve.

I would watch the Texas matches on Youtube and never had these issues before.

Probably worth a minor detour if you're already in town www.nps.gov/waco/index.htmI've been to the Mammoth dig. It was worthwhile and it's something to do for folks who need an afternoon activity on the day of the match.

Just finished watching the game late , had to avoid spoilers like the plague. Great game all the way around and congrats to both teams. Hawaii definitely fought but Texas just had so much firepower on their side of the net at every single position, and 2 fantastic setters, there was only so much the Wahine could do.
Loved the performance from Stella, she shined against a big name team which is what I was nervous about. If she can just keep developing that offensive consistency, she may be a dark horse going into the conference season.
However, what was a DISGRACE was the unprepared, uniformed, low energy budget announcer that Texas had calling the game. I mean my goodness! I know it wasn’t a ranked matchup but it’s like they pulled the guy off the street to call the game. Regularly got players confused, got their class years wrong, and just all around was a disappointing play by play person. But maybe with Cmac and Kainoa I’m just REALLY spoiled. But really seems like even with all that P4 money, Texas couldn’t find someone halfway decent to call this match. Oh well, onto Baylor!

I wonder if she's taken the backup setter spot from Matias. (Also why Matias is playing serving specialist/DS now) It looks like it. Robyn has locked Jackie in the serving sub for Jacyn ro in every set so far. It’s almost like someone predicted it 👀
