CSUN service error on match point and the commentator really said “that just summarizes the match for CSUN”

The way Hawaii just outright mollywops the rest of conference, you wonder if a lot of the issues with The Beach and The Barbs came down to more mental breakdown that crept into execution of their own game.

I don't know if it was because of passing, but did Lang run one slide tonight? I don't think there was one. Even if there wasn't, Igiede and Evans had a stellar game.

It was actually kind of cool, both middles hitting for that high of a clip and only hitting in front? That’s impressive. |

Hawaii has done real bad on the road's first match. TCU, LBSU and UCSB were first matches on the road - then Hawaii evens out. I have a feeling that's a factor. I agree tho, they are beating the rest of the conference handily while the other two are struggling. Lots of conference to play, but Hawaii is in control of their destiny to get that No. 1 seed, which IMO, is super important. |

Destiny doesn't like to be controlled. She's a bit of a flirt though, and likes to tease. She will yield to persistent pursuit, and sometimes just likes to be grabbed and taken. But, she's never to be taken for granted.

Against teams with dominated middles you don't need it... just needlessly complicates play and tires your own middle. We hardly backset to Caylen at all too. Most of Caylen's swings are at the left. Either they were afraid of the block on that side (unlikely), or like you said it was working so keep it simple. |

Why are you gonna triple block Wagoner when she is having a bad night hitting? I had an old high school coach who loved to do this. It's kind of a "kick them when their down" moment, make them totally melt down. |

I have an A/V question.
I'm sure you all noticed how the TV scoreboard was, at times, not updated during the televised Hawaii-CSUN match. So, it would show the score from several plays ago instead of the current score. It was very irritating.
My question is: who the hell is responsible for keeping the score updated on the TV screen? I'm sure it's none of the on-air commentators, though I have no way of knowing this. Is it done by one production guy who's also busy with other things behind the scenes? Or is there one dedicated guy whose sole job is to update the score? I mean, how hard can this job be?
