Amber (13) and Tiff (12) combined for 25 kills from the middle, which were second and third, after Wagoner (21). The middles did their part, and maybe we could have gotten more from Igiede, but they did well. This match wasn't a matter of who lead in kills that contributed to their loss, it was their own errors that did them in. The good thing about that is that they will be able to work on it and fix it moving forward. Just have to stay positive for them and continue to support our Wahine's in that way. i hate how this thread becomes people with higher vb iq having to show why wahinefan's comments aren't worth reading. Just gotta help him out I guess. Sometimes it be like that.

You need good passing to get your middles involved and Hawai'i didn't have it today. Riley Wagoner had 21 kills today, The Bows got support from their pins. If the Wahine are going to rely on their pin hitters, they are in very BIG TROUBLE. Do not see Riley Wagoner putting up that kind of kill numbers on a consistent basis, or any other pin hitter for that matter. You watch, the next 2 matches, how may kills the pin hitters get. They will struggle to get into double digit kill numbers, for that matter, the rest of the pre-conference schedule. So where does this leave the Wahine if their passing does not improve, and cannot involve the Middles on a more consistent level. Really, another gdmn season with this? You see one loss that you can’t even analyze correctly and all of a sudden everything about the team and program is garbage? I usually find blocking as a cowards way out but maybe I’ll make an exception because my god it is so annoying for you to have that username ironically and just do nothing but crap on Hawaii every single time. Frankly, I don’t think you know volleyball enough to make the assumptions that you make. That’s not me trying to be insulting, that’s just judging on the type of feedback you give.

Robin doesn’t seem too confident in her team and seems to have a lot of question marks. I don't get that at all tbh. Not that she lacks confidence in the team more like who steps up when we need it the most with certain positions. I understand that but isn't that a coaches job to assess this and determine the right players to put in position based off what she sees in practice. Gotta have some idea or confidence going into the start of the season.

Agreed, she was a very pleasant surprise and probably isn’t anywhere close to how good she will be when she finds her groove and really comes into her own. I don’t know if any of the hitters she graduated with from her club team are slated to start. Singletary at Texas is a for sure redshirt, Markley and Leverette might get some spot play but probably wont be relied upon. Looking forward to seeing her grow, through the ups and downs, Robyn definitely found a great raw recruit.

We will have a losing record going into Conference then win the Big West! this is so predictable, we are no longer a top volleyball program as we will continue to not make it into a regional :-(.. but most wahine fans are ok with this end result!

Serving errors at bad times and the lack of a block did kinda kill the wahine today. I was pleasantly surprised by the added power of wagoner (beach looks like it helped especially with her stamina). I would’ve liked to see more of Calen on the right just for blocking purposes and maybe Cowell on the left. She’s a mature player and her leadership might be needed.
I do wish Kate would try to take more of the bad passes with her hands instead of bumping them. She has the speed and the hands to do it. Just have to be more aggressive.

You're like a broken record, constantly running around like Chicken little. AKA HENNY PENNY Poor Henny Penny got eaten by Foxy Loxy

Aloha
Not to state the the obvious the serving killed us today. The girls for their first game out with lots of new blood did well. We saw Westerberg preform like we never have seen her before Riley stepped up Amber came to play our new girls showed us promise.
Robyn has now lots to work with now to improve the girls. A great stress test to improve performance.
Lots of positive love for tomorrow.

I'm not ok with the result, but the team is what it is at this point. The team's ceiling was reached in the off-season on the recruiting front--we can't change that. We can only hope for them to play to their utmost potential and do what they can.

Whatever happens this weekend, I'm excited to see our team at the Stan next week. It's been almost 2 years since I last stepped foot in that place.
