HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – After a crushing finish in the NCAA semifinals, the University of Hawaii at Manoa men’s volleyball team is back home.
The Rainbow Warriors lost to UCLA in straight sets in the final four of the 2025 NCAA National Championship in Columbus, Ohio, Saturday.
Despite a disappointing end, the team is thankful for the many Hawaii fans that made the trip to support them, as well as those who greeted them back on campus.
Middle blocker Kurt Nusterer said, “I still will never be able to wrap my head around the fact that people love us that much to make sacrifices like that to support us, and it’s the reason this program is successful.”
This was UH’s fifth appearance in the last six seasons in the tournament.
The ‘Bows ended the season with a 27-6 record and the title of Big West Champions.
