Robyn still had one scholarship available, for this current year. Picking up Monahan just means Robyn will be moving Maddie Way to Opposite, to backup Caylen Alexander, or when Caylen Alexander has to replace either of the Outside Hitters.

Mentioned in the 2025 Commits thread, Bows got a commit from Makena Biondi - 6’4” MB. Plays for Agoura HS (California) and Sunshine VBC and has Hawaii connections Her dad is Matt Biondi, 11-time Olympic swimmer, uncle is Stein Metzger, her older brother went to Saint Francis and played for Spike & Serve. She’s a project player but hella athletic from a top club in cali so I’ll take it! Welcome! Which reminds me whatever happened to get brother, Luke? The kid was pretty good.

I wouldn't mind it being put up and taken down a dozen more times if the final version listed 14 or 15 players instead of 13. Then that tells me they don't have their Shiite together and unorganized. Is the website the responsibility of the vb program or the marketing dept (or some other dept)? Cause if it isn't the vb program, why are we blaming Robyn and Co?

The Website is the responsibility of the Digital Media Department. They get the information from the coaching staff of respective sport.

I wish the vendors would test the site off-live and fix it there. Probably they need someone at UH to see the page live to make changes.

Figured I'd add this, how do we feel about the next two recruiting classes so far? I know everyone is concerned about how small this year's roster is and not being able to bring in any impact transfers. But we already have three for 2025 and one for 2026. All is not loss!
2025 Makena Biondi 6'4 FR M Los Angeles, CA (Agoura HS) Kahea Moriwaka 5'3 FR L Mililani, HI (Punahou School) Chalei Reid 6'0 FR OH/OPP Lai'e, HI (Kahuku HS) 2026 Rachel Purser 6'3 FR M/OPP Henderson, NV (Coronado HS)

Surprised no one has posted Malinah Purcell-Telefoni's IG post. She's leaving school and vb. Her profile is private, but Tiff Well's tweeted (X'ed?) it.

Need to remember, you are talking about the University of Hawaii Athletic Department. The Department is a BIG JOKE. There is no one actually who is controlling the Athletic Department. Everyone in the Athletic Department is off doing there own thing. Not to mention, rarely working. If you ever try calling anyone all you get is a phone message.

For all the ones who questioned her signing... *shrugs* Hopefully this doesn't change Chalei Reid's commitment since they are cousins. I think at this point 13 is the roster we have this year - with the depth/experience issues. At least we know 2025 and 2026 classes are coming together.

Speaking of Chalei Reid, she posted on her IG a picture of her in the Kahuku uniform with the caption "Guess who's back..."
