Thanks for the updates. I can't believe UH lost the 3rd game. I thought they had the sweep.

Warriors Follow Lead of Ching, Theocharidis to Post Series Sweep of Bruins LOS ANGELES, Calif. - The national champion Warrior volleyball squad capped a historic visit to Westwood, completing its first ever road series sweep of 8th ranked UCLA behind 27 kills from All-American Costas Theocharidis and 19 more from Tony Ching to take care of the Bruins, 30-19, 30-23, 28-30, 30-19, at Pauley Pavilion.
Tonight's victory marked just the fourth win a Warrior team has posted over UCLA in southern California. Last night Hawaii opened their series with the Bruins with a four-game win. The two previous road wins were claimed in the 1983 and 2001 seasons.
Theocharidis was dominant in the series, following his 25-kill performance in the series opener with 27 more tonight, sparking a Warrior offense that hit .459 with 72 kills and only 16 errors in 122 total attempts.
Ching remained the hottest hitter on the court tonight, posting his 19 kills on a blistering .607 attack percentage. Ching was equally dangerous last night, when he slammed-down 17 kills on a match-high .682 percentage.
As was the case in the first game of the series opener, both teams felt each other out in the opening game tonight, exchanging points in the early going. Unlike Friday's contest, Hawaii seemed to find its rhythm first, inching away to a 10-8 advantage before pulling away to lead the remainder of the set.
Ching was Hawaii's top point producer, registering four kills and three service aces in game one. The 6-foot-2 senior had a hand in Hawaii's early five-point run, following back-to-back kills with consecutive service aces, as the Warriors inched away to a 13-9 advantage. The Warriors would ride two more three-point runs to run away with the first game.
Delano Thomas put a fitting end to the first game, putting-up Hawaii's 30th point on the Warriors' sixth service ace of the frame. It was the second for Thomas in game one.
Both squads attacked with good success as Hawaii (.440) and UCLA (.450) enjoyed team hitting percentages of over .400. Ching picked-up right where he left off the previous night, hitting .667 with four kills and no errors in six swings. The Honolulu native had a hot hand in the series opener as well, with 17 kills on a .682 percentage. Theocharidis led the Warriors with five kills and no errors in seven attempts (.714).
The Warriors responded to a UCLA charge with a late run of their own, ripping-off seven consecutive points to take the two game lead, 30-23. After taking a 10-8 lead early in the game, Hawaii watched as the Bruins got hot, moving-out to a 21-19 advantage as game two neared the homestretch.
A pair of Warrior blocks, a UCLA service error and a block solo by Thomas provided the fuel as Hawaii had a four-point run, prompting Bruin boss Al Scates to signal for a timeout, trailing 23-21. UCLA stormed out of the break.
But the Warriors would not be denied in the second game, responding with seven straight points. Two kills apiece by Theocharidis and Ching, another by Eyal Zimet and a pair of Bruin errors told the story as the Warriors moved into game three up 2-0. Ching led the Warrior attack with nine kills in the game, while Theocharidis added seven.
UCLA dug in and scrapped to extend the match to a fourth game, running-off six consecutive points to come back from a 28-24 deficit to take the third game, 30-28. The game was tightly played all the way up until Hawaii grouped a three-point run and a pair of two-point rallies to take a 28-24 lead.
Theocharidis came through early in game three, carrying the Warriors at one point by recording eight of his team's 10 points in one stretch. The 6-foot-3 senior led all attackers with nine kills in game three.
The Warriors return home to the 50th state tomorrow afternoon at about 12:40 p.m., to ready for their MPSF series against 6th ranked Pacific.

Ching hit over .600 for both matches... It's nice to see Ching put back to back good outings like this. Hope it continues for him. I wonder because of these 2 last match performance he'd be chosen as player of the week?
