Stanford sweeps Warriors in volleyball

Advertiser Staff

The University of Hawai'i volleyball team's nine-day road trip came to a end with tonight's 30-22, 30-23, 30-25 loss to Stanford in the Burnham Pavilion at Stanford, Calif.

The Warriors had no answer for opposite attacker Evan Romero, who slammed 20 kills in 26 swings and hit an astonishing .692.

Punahou School graduate Spencer McLachlin buried 11 kills, and Iolani School's Kawika Shoji served two aces for the Cardinal.

Joshua Walker, a second-year freshman, led the Warriors with 17 kills.

No other Warrior had more than six kills.

The Warriors are scheduled to play Loyola Chicago in non-conference matches next week in the Stan Sheriff Center.
