So what’s the deal with Annika and Kiraly? Are they just bench warmers and cheerleaders? Rams brings them all the way over from Europe for a reason. If they don’t play much this season I see them doing what Leo or Helvig did. Just saying. Maybe they enjoy being in Hawaii and the team they play on? Also the circumstances between Hellvig and Leoniak leaving are MUCH different.

She had lots of potential, she seems to enjoy Hawaii and does alot of things in the community also her boyfriend lives in Hawaii. If she can’t continue she may just medically retire. As for Annika, she’s an okay player probably not as impactful as imagined, she’s a dual citizen for all we know she could have planned going to college in USA anyway. She also seems to fit in with lifestyle in Hawaii.

I still hope for UH to get a hitting coach. So it could improve the pin hitters who aren’t up to par to what we all want. I see that as the only option if UH can’t recruit the top pin hitters in the nation and it looks like some of our hitters aren’t improving as well with the current staff…

After this brutal weekend. Who is your starting lineup for next weekend? Assuming evans is still not ready to play.
OH1: Alexander OH2: Ham OPP: Akana? (I don’t see any other option) Degoede disappointed me. M1: Igiede M2:Westerberg L: Ikenaga S: Lang DS: Wagoner, Edmonds.
If Westerberg does get moved to opp again, I hope she can be just as impactful as how she’s been playing in the middle. Because if not then she should just stay in the middle.

Why don’t the coaches or UH tell us what’s really going on with players behind the scenes. Now I know some of you are going to say why you being so Niele or none of your business but hey they’re sports athletes so of course we’ll or I will want to know why a recruit isn’t playing if the coaches don’t say anything.

True! I’m still rooting for Degoede but it’s hard to after how she did. But we’ll see.

She was diagnosed with MS, so as you probably know it is a very difficult thing to deal with daily. I don't really see her coming back fully to her potential. It is very sad actually.

Riley is probably still going to start no matter what she does LOL!

Well I think Kiraly is in the early stages of her MS diagnosis, so she could be completely at the mercy of what her non school affiliated doctor says, which usually does turns out to be don’t do anything at all between test results, appointments, etc

Someone who can develop and teach a better blocking scheme as well as someone who is going to really dive into hitting mechanics and strategies for each hitter. A setter head coach and 3 libero assistants is going to make that difficult…

Riley is probably still going to start no matter what she does LOL! Yea tbh she’s had worse showings and watching the Texas A&M game I really think her issues come when she stops being relentlessly aggressive and tries to finesse everything. If she would hit hard with good vision and strategy against the block, I don’t see why she can’t be reliable every game. 6ft is not short in Womens volleyball and her vertical isn’t terrible. She just does a lot of things that aren’t fooling anyone

Really bad news. Sorry to hear that. Now I can understand why. Thanks for sharing. Prayer 🙏 and well wishes to her.

Riley is probably still going to start no matter what she does LOL! This is probably true, but then Robyn needs to create a scheme that doesn't allow her to receive majority of the sets. If you're setting the person the most, let's pray she can at least hit over .200. Maybe Hawaii needs to keep Alexander in the backrow and have her hit from the backrow to lesson the attempts Wagoner gets.
