Hawaii got an emphatic performance from its middles in a 25-17, 25-19, 25-13 sweep of UC Irvine at SimpliFi Arena to move into sole possession of first place in the Big West at 5-0 (8-5 overall). “I don’t know what happened the last two (practices) … they get me angry, and then they come back and, they just get dialed,” Ah Mow told Spectrum Sports afterward.

The pair and the team’s third middle blocker Kennedi Evans were responsible for over 53% of the team’s 56 total kills.

In relevant news, The Beach rallied in set 2 to tie the match with UCSB at 1-1. This beach team is a threat they have speed and I think a pretty good setter. I think they are just starting to get their groove. Thankfully we already played them at the Pyramid!

nice ... added this quick highlight clip to the op. Fabulous. Hawaii currently does not have a pin hitter that can do something just like that. Maybe Caylen but along with her power she tends to hit the ball more forward which is really good too.
