Hawaii All Stars placed 3rd in their pool! They had to win their challenge pool (which they did) later in the day to stay in the gold medal pool.
In Hawaii All-Stars morning bracket, a team called Hawaii Volleyball Nation won this pool. Who is Hawaii Volleyball Nation?

Talked to one of their staff: they are from the Bay Area, practice in City Beach and been around for just 7 weeks! Have 5 teams in Phoenix, 18s in the open and the rest in club.

and SCVC 17 with jimmy killian and tony ker beat the vaqueros for the 17 and under gold.
by the way, if torrimar 18's had been at JO's, it would have been a joke. they had to be in taihland playing in some international tournament. anyway, LBC didnt deserve the gold. they are anything amazing, and neither are their players. i roofed jake schkud during the high school season many times on solo blocks, and im 5'9". LBC shouldnt have won it.

LBC shouldnt have won it. It takes a real crackpot to make a inept post like that. LBC did it by beating all the hardest teams, and by the way, they showed up to play, unlike Torimar. LBC was the superior team. They took on all comers and walked the talk, unlike those who didn't show up, didn't win didly, but come on to a board like this and claim a mythical win. Give it up. Come to play next time. No one can dispute the 3-time champions who played awesome to win it all, again.

To give everyone the facts, Torrimar 18's didn't show up not because they thought they were too good, but they qualified for the Youth World Championships. I have to admit that they would have handily beat LBC, but they were off training together for a much grander competition. Hats off to LBC, they were the best team in the tournament.

You, nor anyone else, can say what the outcome would have been in an LBC vs. Torimar match. You wish to minimize the LBC accomplishments when you have no basis to do so. LBC was polished and strategically brilliant, not only outmanning the competition that did choose to show up, but outsmarting them with new looks on the last day that they hadn't shown anyone, designed specifically for the opponents. Torimar won last year in the finals against LBC 17s, the same kids that are now the 18s this year, but with 3 first class additions. LBC 18s are much stronger team than last year's 17s version. People claim LBC lacks respect, an utterly absurd opinion, confusing competitive intensity and focus with that, but then demonstrate a huge degree of disrespect themselves with these posts. If Torimar wanted to have bragging rights for something at the JOs this year, they and their supporters should have shown up in Phoenix. Now they're pushing their way in when they've done nothing to earn it. Try earning it next time. When you do you'll get the respect you think you deserve.

Torrimar barely d. LBC 17's last season in the finals. Since then, the LBC squad gained Klosterman from the 18's , Justin May from the 16's plus Schkud from Palisades.
Torrimar's finals in 16's and 17's were not blowouts, LBC had the weapons for this year.

LBC will be around for a long time. As has been said on this board and on VB Mag's, it's the same year after year, everyone likes to bash the winner. The coach got a red card and someone eroneously posts he was arrested.

So Darrick lost his cool at the 15's match...the club won't get banned from the 2004 JO's. Maybe Darrick might get banned but not the club itself. And the LBC has enough great coaches at all levels. They won't miss a beat without Coach Lucero. He'll still be running the show. Maybe he'll show up in Bobby Valentines fake mustache.
