Gooch transferring to UCLA was big. Rowan stepping up and playing as true freshman at that level was pretty amazing. He is a lot younger than a lot of players on the court. Knight and Norris played their best matches of the year. When McHenry gets a good set, he is hard to stop. Champlin was solid on reception all night. It was a team win. UCLA didn't have one guy.

Hawaii reception put them out of system a lot and they got behind in sets and it hard to come back on a team like UCLA. Hawaii traditionally is excellent at reception but maybe Penn State serving put some doubt in their minds? It was uncharacteristic how they weren't able to receive better.

UCLA' has a deep bench of players that are contributing while Hawaii is mostly just the starting players. They were gassed out during the 3rd and 4th sets.

After seeing the penn state vs Hawaii game, I knew Hawaii won’t get the three peat. The passers were not as precise as the past two years. I think one of the commentator mentioned before that the passing of gage, Colton and Chaz was the key for that 2021 championship. Passing was also good in 2022. I don’t know what happened this year but it seemed that they relied too much on their attacking skills.

UCLA #2 middle blocker he didn’t start the match but he’s doing such a great job offensively and defensively as well as his serve

I love the Hawaii fans and all the support they give their volleyball team, but I was so happy for UCLA to win. UCLA setter is Christenson's future replacement in the national team

The line judge on hawaii's side is blind, bro miscalled 3 hits that were in by over a foot. Thank goodness UCLA called those.

I bet David thanked Knight after the 1st set. David was playing well at first. Then It was 20-20 and David hit two out in a row. Then the ball came right at him and it would have been a difficult dig but possible dig that David was not able to control and Hawaii went up 23-20.

UCLA got the next point and Knight was up to serve at 21-23. Knight served a tough serve and UCLA got the point. Hawaii called time out and a big percent of the time players miss their serve out of a time out but Knight nailed an ace to get the game back to 23-23. That changed the entire match.

Hawaii is doing well despite the loss but UCLA wow every position is superb setter, OH, OPP, libero, middle wow and the two OH are very good with defense and reception too 🎉

i got to see this game live, and i filmed the last point and when hawaii lost you can just hear me SCREAMING

[N-si]

I swear 70% of what they are talking is about Hawaii’s setter💀

[nanabish]

I didn’t know Knight was this good as OH cuz this year I watched the 2024 NCAA and he was playing as libero, I do know the reason of why but wow

[SteezyKyung]

Clearly they needed Scott Sterling to beat UCLA

[ikust]

its unbelievable this is 2023 and the quality is fake 720p

[KAI_OLLER]

[eduardodiazmoreno]

We are the champions we are the champions 🎉😊

[maoyyyy]

how come norris didn’t play a lot before??

[peteydidit]

what does it mean for a blocker to "front"? I assume it means to stand in front of a hitter uncommitted, but not 100%. answer only if you know please, @48:05 ish

[Vballnut]

I feel like Humler should have been given a chance once they went down 1-2, Galloway was clearly struggling
