It may have been the two 5-set match scares that dropped the Hawai'i Rainbow Wahine volleyball team one spot in the latest AVCA coaches poll. It could be the top ten in the polls won to some good ranked teams and some lost to some unranked teams to shuffle the poll. But one thing is for certain. Coach Dave Shoji right now does not care where the Wahine are ranked. They need to worry about winning the next match which is at home this week.
The Wahine will play an exhibition match with the Toyota Auto Body pro team tomorrow before they go back to Big West play against UC Irvine on Thursday Sept. 27 at the Stan Sheriff Center. They they will have a big match up with former rival foe Long Beach State Saturday night at the SSC. Yes that's right Hawai'i fans remember coach Brian Gimmillaro and his tenacious 49ers team that always give the Wahine trouble. We are not in the WAC anymore so we cannot take any game lightly. All matches are at 7:00pm HST.
