Shocks vs Hawaii (Really Late Nite With Mike Kennedy)

[RoyalShock]

So far in game 4, UH is hitting .482 and WSU -.118. Not gonna get it done like that.

[1972Shocker]

Game 4 is probably to far gone at this point. However, the Shocks need to build a little momentum and confidence going into game 5.

:goshocks:

[SCKSCat]

I quit listening. Maybe that will help.

Hate to see WSU lose after a very good effort early in the match.

[dregn]

This set hurts...come out pissed and play with some fire in the 5th...it's a new ball game and only 1 set counts.

[dregn]

who's still with me?

[1972Shocker]

Well will see what kind of mental toughness this team has. They at least need to stay in this 15 point game long enough to put a little pressure on Hawaii.

Momentum is definitely solidly on Hawaii's side of the net right now.

:posterwu: :goshocks: :posterwsu:

[RoyalShock]

I'm only watching on the stat tracker, but I don't have a good feeling about set 5. It's awfully tough to get the momentum back.

[dregn]

not a good start

[Cdizzle]

here we go now.

[dregn]

excited, frustrated, just plain tired...hoping tomorrow night they come out and take it out on Eastern Washington

[The Mad Hatter]

Well, as disappointed as I am that we couldn't finish Hawaii off after the 2-0 start, if you had told me we would sweep Santa Clara and take Hawaii to 5 games, I would have taken it without hesitation. Now let's finish the tournament on a high note by beating Eastern Washington.

[1972Shocker]

The Shocks set themselves up with a great opportunity for a big upset by winning the first two games. Just didn't respond very well when Hawaii came out after intermission and more or less imposed their will on the Shocks.

:(

We're just not quite ready to make that jump to the next level. While we are not quite their yet the gap between us and the Hawaii's and K-States of the world is not that great. Hopefully, by the end of the year we will be more than ready for these kind of teams.

[SpanglerFan316]

It's disappointing but Lamb will have them ready tomorrow. 0 aces, 19 SEs is not good.

[dregn]

It didn't sound like the lack of aces was from the quality of the serves, but from the ability of Hawaii to handle whatever was thrown at them.

[SpanglerFan316]

Remember Turgeon and the game at Creighton where we had a big lead but lost? Last night's game reminded me of that; a failure to adjust to the opponents changing gameplan.
