Set Point

@ScottRobbs not as good as how you interview him after matches, but how did I do? I know I had a couple of blips here and there, but I tried to tap into your inner you.

My postgame interview with @HawaiiMensVB coach Charlie Wade following the No.3 Rainbow Warriors’ 5-set road win over No.2 Long Beach State. I appreciate Wade for letting me interview him, as he talks about the win, Kristian Titriyski stepping up and more. #NCAAMVB @IESportsRadio

And Hawaii fans, I know Kanoa Leahey uses Ekahi Elua Aloha for 3-set wins, but I think we can make an exception for tonight.

EKAHI! ELUA! ALOHA! A kill by Kristian Titriyski gives No.3 @HawaiiMensVB set 5 15-11 and the match over No.2 Long Beach State. The Rainbow Warriors beat the Beach in Long Beach for the first time in a little over 11 years. What a win by the ‘Bows! @IESportsRadio

@zager1025 Charlie Wade did mention the hot weather in California this week when I interviewed him. I think there was some humidity inside the Pyramid.

@Set_PointIE @HawaiiMensVB @IESportsRadio Was it hot or humid inside the Pyramid? Still scratching my head over the cramping on both teams

A kill by Wojciech forces Hawaii to call time out. ‘Bows lead 14-12 in set 5 over Long Beach State. Crazy rally right here. #NCAAMVB

I’ve always wanted to say that by the way.

(Kanoa Leahey voice) D set to Titriyski! He just CRUSHED that ball. A kill from Kristian Titriyski has @HawaiiMensVB up 13-10 in set 5. Time out Long Beach State, their last. #NCAAMVB

(Kanoa Leahey voice) Titriyski, DEALS AN ACE! ARE YOU FOR REAL?! A service ace from Kristian Titriyski has @HawaiiMensVBon a 4-0 run, leading 11-8 in set 5. Time out Long Beach State. #NCAAMVB

At the side switch, @LBSUMVB leads 8-7 over Hawaii after a service ace from Wojciech Gajek. Again, have a night young man! #NCAAMVB

Wojciech Gajek is back in for Long Beach State

A service error from No.3 Hawaii gives No.2 @LBSUMVB set 4 25-20, as this one is going #CincoSets. Wojciech Gajek leads the Beach with 20 kills. Kristian Titriyski leads the Rainbow Warriors with 10 kills. Only fitting these 2 go the distance. @IESportsRadio

(Ira Thor voice) REACH OUT AND STUFF SOMEONE!!! A block by Jake Pazanti puts @LBSUMVB up 21-17 in set 4. Time out Hawaii. #NCAAMVB

Hawaii’s swing goes out of play, as they call time out. @LBSUMVB leads 17-15 in set 4. It’s still anyone’s set, as no lead is safe when it comes to this rivalry. #NCAAMVB

At the media time out, @LBSUMVB leads 15-14 in set 4 after a kill from Skyler Varga. #NCAAMVB

Okay, so Gajek was cramping. Still, something to monitor.

Check that, Gajek came down awkwardly on his right leg after he put down the kill.

After his 20th kill, Wojciech Gajek went down with what appeared to be a right calf injury. Connor Bloom checking in for Gajek. #NCAAMVB

Kill No.20 for Wojciech Gajek of @LBSUMVB. Have a night young man. #NCAAMVB

Now Tread Rosenthal of Hawaii went down awkwardly, as he’s favoring his left calf. He popped back up and APPEARS to be alright. Something to monitor. #NCAAMVB
