I hate to pick on Tayli because I like her but the service error into the net at 23-18 was huge. UCLA had a run of its own to draw closer to Hawaii and a good serve would have given Hawaii a chance at a block, instead Luper went on a 7-point service run.

Two storied programs. Tough loss. Yeah, they blew it in the 4th with a 23-18 lead. Just couldn’t close it out at the end. Definitely a meltdown at the end. Hopefully they will learn from this and clean things up before SC comes to town.

Even though last night’s loss was unfortunate I’m still excited for the upcoming series with USC. The coaching staff saw clearly where the issue lies and will hopefully coach the team up leading into the series. Go Wahine!

I feel like there’s a difference between the two types of errors.

Bottom line, is good as UCLA is, Hawai'i was more than capable of beating them, and should have. Which is why the give away at the end was so disappointing. Can rehash here what happened, but would sooner not. Instead, look forward to seeing how they come out against USC. While I'm pretty sure about what they need to fix, I'm positive the coaches and players do too. So, no point giving USC and the rest of the Big West any insight. Let them come up with their own scouting.

Edmonds is serving some Hedder Ilustre realness on defense but her passing has been iffy. I wonder why Ham has to be hidden in the passing formation when she and Edmonds are both on the court. In all the matches I've seen, she seems to control the ball better than Edmonds.

I like Tayli too, but yeah that one still stings, and stuck in my mind when we lost. Regarding setters, it seems Byrd is very tentative when playing and seems very nervous. More importantly, she goes long stretches without setting Amber, our #1 player, even on a good pass. Although Lang had her own issues, she was always finding ways to set Amber during first half of the match.

Tayli’s error came at a bad time, but it was just one point. The rest of the team still had to drop six straight points to lose.

I swear she’s been in the receive formation and they’ve pushed the outsides up I do see certain rotations where Ham is being hidden. There is Tayli, Edmond, and Wagoner in the passing rotation so Ham is the odd guy out. I think later on in the match, Robyn took Riley out of the passing responsibility and made Ham pass. Ham is in to serve and play defense for Akana so she is hidden like most teams who hide their 6 rotation OPP.
