Ham is becoming one of my favorite Wahine. Crazy to see a 6'0 DS do so well for Hawaii.
Other story of the season so far: Wahine backcourt of Ikenaga, Edmonds, Ham, Wagoner and Lang is just a pleasure to watch. Best back row Hawaii has had since Danielson/Cubi-Otineru//Ka'aihue/Mafua/Lee/Brandt.
Passing still needs work, but the defense is stellar.

How many digs did Kendra get on Friday? Any chance she would be nominated for DPOW (assuming she had choke digs). Kendra led the team in digs both nights. 11 against CSUN and 18 vs UCSB. 4.14 average. Tayli had 9 digs vs CSUN and 4 against UCSB. Kendra had almost as many digs per set as Macall Peed, the Libero at UCSB lol Take into account that Kendra was off the court about half the time.

I wonder if she might become another DS like Knuckles of Neb.

Peed is by far the best libero in the conference. I wonder what she's passing for the season bc she covers so much court and her defense is just too good.

Ham's dig count is high, just because of the # of opportunities she got, UCSB set Froley a lot, who hit in Ham's direction a lot. Froley still hit .323 so it's not like they slowed her down. On the other hand, our left side block is a weak point, so that's also a credit to Ham for digging that many balls. Good liberos get avoided, I'm sure a team strategy was to avoid hitting at Peed.

I hope she stays bc she's earned a scholarship in my eyes.

Umeh's performance was impressive I have to admit I really thought Riley had a chance but I didn't see the rest of the players LOL so I am not one to talk but she did good this weekend! I know people always get riled up when players are compared but I hope that Stella will be the Umeh of Hawaii, although I think down the road Stella will be better than Umeh.

I always wonder why Lang isn’t getting the setter of the week award. She’s doing more than good to me & leads the conference in assists. What are everyone else’s thoughts?

Umeh's performance was impressive I have to admit Honestly Cal Poly just couldn’t do anything about her. Also I thought Stockton was on film but in person…sheeesh lol good thing she crushes the ball and makes up for the lack of range

Since Novembers coming up, I hope UH will post when and who signs their NLI right away. Last year, they stalled for so long
