WOW, some real old guys showing up, awesome. Good way to knock off the rust off the ole joints. Definitely going to need some help from the B team...didn't know we fielded a squad back in 1973. so impressed I'm going to say it backwards WOW!

Where’s Siki? I know he lives here. It’s tax season, maybe the dude is stuck in the CPA office with his pile of tax returns. That sucks

Davis Holt should be playing also, that would give Alumni a big block up front. Come on alumni, Hawaii fans want to see a real match... past versus present!

You would think that Josh Walker would suit up and play too

Josh is not going to play. Looks to be in fine shape but maybe out of place for a coach to be playing. I’m surprised Brian Beckwith is not playing . He is still pretty young and looks OK but the dude wearing slippahs...LOL

I think Humler will be like SVT. Filip is very polished offensively. Hits a heavy ball and find holes in blocks well. What might be keeping him from starting might be his passing and his floor defense. He will have to work on those aspects of his game for next season. I do think in certain situations during the season, we may need Filip to come in for Cowell...either to block or terminate a crucial point.
With a year of strength training, the dude can only get better.

The starting unit smoked the alumni who were totally overmatched 25-11 in set one. Stijn, Dalton and Gage played for the alumni in set 2 which was much closer 25-18. In set 3, the B team played against the alumni with Gasman shifting over to the alumni side and alumni won set 3 25-23. Humler is a player, smart hitter and lethal at the service line. Thelle did well at setter, he went to Humler a lot as he was dah terminatah!

Cowell landed awkwardly near end of set 1 and was a little gimpy, hope he’s okay. For the alumni, seldom used 5’9 DS Michael China had a awesome debut as a pin hitter and tooled our blockers all night. Did not see that coming. Tui had an okay night at OH, now sports a beard.

Robyn and Angellica played in the women's alumni match

Here’s hoping the Bows can bag a couple wins vs the Cardinal this weekend. Off the subject question, are there any websites/venues to post on UH football? I used to post on CBS Sports but they nixed that and ESPN threads need to be cleaned up...too many robot posters. Thanks

It isn't specifically for football and all the sports are discussed, but usually the main topic of conversation is around football.

Back in volleytalk after a 3-week hibernation.
What did the team do while idle?
UH back in action tomorrow?
