Oregon Ducks volleyball defeated the Southeastern Louisiana Lions in straight sets tonight, in the second match of the day at Matthew Knight Arena.
Iowa State vs. Hawai’i
The first match pitted the Iowa State Cyclones against the Hawai’i Rainbow Wahine. Hawai’i started slow and dropped the first set 16-25, and then found themselves down by 6 early in the second, but clawed back to take the second set, 26-24.
Once they got it going, their attacks were sharper and their blocking was better than the Cyclones. While this may have technically been an “upset”, the fact remains that the Rainbow Wahine are a very good, very well-coached team, and the outcome should have surprised no one.
