Congrats to Hawaii.Very impressive that over half their starters were on their bench on last years championship team. That shows great inner growth and development by their players and the coaching staff.
THAT BACKSET TO END SET 2… Jacob is just so
...GOATED!
he’s just THAT guy
Player of the year should go to the person that impacts their team the most, the person to keep their teammates heads in the game even when their down. And to me that sounds like Thelle. Yes, Nikolov is good and well-deserved freshman of the year but though he played a pretty good game, he was seen visibly frustrated and yelling at his teammates (He's still young, I mean he just turned 18 like last month, so he has time to grow out of that) and I really do think how they communicate with each other on the court is what cost them the game (Besides Hawaii playing absolutely incredible). Nikolov was yelling at Olivier for whatever ever reason, then the next play Olivier gets blocked. Thelle is constantly seen encouraging his teammates through communication and his serves.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed, especially at 1:00:10. I don't think he was good for him to express his frustration like that to a teammate. It really impacts the entire team when it comes to communication. I acknowledge Nikolov being an outstanding freshman and OH, but I don't think the NPOY should have that sort of attitude on the court. I agree, I think Thella should have gotten the honor for being a really good floor captain and also better all-around player from serving, digging, killing, and also setting, which really messed up Long Beach's blocking.
I’m late to reply to this but as someone who feels the same, I did my research. Mens volleyball doesn’t have a freshman of the year. If it did, I’m sure Thelle would’ve gotten player and Nikolov would’ve gotten freshman.
Thelle was indeed the difference, besides his leadership, he also knew how to work the players. Nikolov is an outstanding player, but LB turned to him too much. Hence, he and Spencer Olivier were the only two players that held the Beach together. No one else was given the opportunity to get into a rhythm. Predictability held the Beach to one block compared to Hawaii's 8.
Although Long Beach had the best hitter on the court, volleyball is a team sport and as a team Hawaii was just better. Hawaii’s pass/receive was on point which allowed Jakob Thelle to run a quick offense just completely overwhelming Long Beach. The serving was also impressive, it seemed like Long Beach was out of system a lot. Can’t wait til next season it’s going to be interesting being that everyone is coming back and teams will be a lot better. I wouldn’t be surprised if we see a repeat with both teams in the finals again.
@@locomojoboy2 Hawaii learned from Yuval Katz , you need more than 1 weapon.
Yeah I agree. Long beach has the best setter and the best hitter. However, Hawaii's defense and offense are superb. Credit to their best digging skills and turn it into a point really make a difference. That's team work. Jakob Thelle has plenty of spikers, be it outside, middle, opposite and backrow. I must say, Hawaii's libero did the best job in digging that ball.
@@eugenegacus1443 I agree that Nikolov is the best hitter but I do not think Knipe is the best setter.
@@eugenegacus1443 Knipe is no where near Thelle's level.
Thelle is a MUCH better setter. No questions asked.
Player of the Year should’ve gone to Thelle. If Nikolov came to Hawaii, he wouldn’t get as much sets as he did with LB; TRUST ME
I do not trust you.
the more i watch this game, Hawai'i was even keeled the entire match, no matter if they were down, or in the lead to close out sets, they maintained the same relaxed attitude, compared to LBSU. LBSU let their emotions get to them.
Hawaii returns their entire team. it will be interesting to see them attempt a three-peat.
UCLA will probably stand in their way.
@@conn_man_249 UCLA will be a part of the nat'l championship discussion for sure. As will LBSU - I think they'll actually be better without Nikolov. They became too reliant on him. Now, they have to be more balanced.
@@imuawarriors What about Olivier he played for 5 years for Long Beach, isn’t 5 the maximum
@@conn_man_249 according to the LBSU website, Olivier was listed as a redshirt junior last year. I'll assume he'll be back for another year. perhaps COVID gave him another year.
Commentator : "And there's a big argument to be made Paul, that player of the year should have gone to Jakob Thelle. Best setter, he makes this team run, they have no singular weapon. He is the guy who's going to be determining the strategy addition throughout. As he goes that team goes."
In the 2019 loss to Long Beach in the National Championship, UH lost the first set with Brett Sheward setting too predictably. They switched to Thelle and the team became more effective. Thelle has become the first team setter after that.
The NCAA voters voted for Nikolav to become the FIRST Freshman to win player of the year when this is a TEAM sport.
The FACTS : Thelle setting : UH beats BYU for National Championship and won 3- 0. Thelle setting : beats #1 Long Beach St. For the Big West Championship and won 3- 0, WITH Nikolav playing. Thelle setting : UH beats #1 seed Long Beach St. For the National Championship and won 3- 0 WITH Nikolav playing.
Pretty obvious who the real player of the year really is!
Media, commentators, NCAA all hyping up this freshman Nikolav as if all the many players who ever played the game before him were mediocre. A TRUE player of the year would have been the one to lead his team to victories!
Worsley was the setter in the 2019 final, Thelle was just a serving sub. Sheward and Thelle had a battle for the starting spot during the year the championship was cancelled due to covid
@@jeffdreger9608 You're right. I was thinking about their loss to BYU at home. They were without Colton Cowell and started with Sheward.
Also Hawaii won the first set in the 2019 national Championship.
Thelle should’ve been the MVP
Doesn't matter if he's player of the year if the team doesn't go to him when they need to. Plus, the guy is on the Bulgarian national team now. So he's no slacker.
Hawaii kicked our butt in the 1995 MPSF championship. Yuval Katz was a monster. They've always played with incredible teamwork.
Mahalo for uploading this magical win for the Warriors!
Thelle played like the player of the year this match, however Nicolov was very good this match too
When you get 9 of the 10 sets…your probabilities are higher to shine…he is good tho
Woo woo!! Hawaii was AWESOME!! I loved all the hype about Long Beach #23 and then BAM they lose!!! The whole time the comments about Long Beach making a move and Hawaii Wins 25-22! 25-21! And 25-20!! It freakin rocked!! So bias against Hawaii with their comments and BAM HAWAII IN THREE!!! Love the bows!!
Also, the refs needed to hand out some yellow cards to LBSU's libero, challenging and complaining every 50/50 ball.
What do you mean?
@@conn_man_249 watch the game and pay attention to every 50/50 ball play on the net, especially when Hawai’i puts it away and “mishandled” balls.
First of all, his name is mason Briggs, one of the best in the game. And you have to play in a couple of factors. For one, watch any volleyball game period, if a 50/50 ball doesn’t go ur way ofc ur gonna be upset and argue one way or another. He just want the point. On top of that, as long as he’s not going up to the ref and complaining directly, there’s no rule against being upset in the game. This isn’t high school volleyball where the refs are gonna card every player for small mishaps. They understand that Briggs just wants the point. If the refs gave out cards for arguing and complaing points (not directly at the refs themselves) there would be no point in playing the game
@@MbMr2711 yea, I could care less if he’s “the best in the game”, quit crying after every call that doesn’t go your teams way and play.
@@MbMr2711 he’s in USMNT too 😭😭😭
i just watched them live at belmont abbey and even took pictures with numer 1 and 20. rlly good team
The play at 46:08 has to be my favorite, both teams were just magnificent (Galloway's save is my favorite part tho!)
And Cole catching Chaz as he’s running into the bench. That’s a good teammate right there.
I agree. The sad thing is they gave the replay to LB’s libero! I mean it wasn’t a great block recover but Galloway had the better save! You can tell who the announcers are rooting for.
Congratulations HAWAII!
💥🏄♂️🏄♀️💥
I don't care what nobody say or none of them commentators Chaz Galloway 🔥🔥🔥
I will never understand why volleyball 🏐 is not popular like basketball 🏀 in the United States with volleyball players making millions of dollars just like Lebron James, Luka Doncic, and Stephen Curry.
I would rather watch high school volleyball than professional basketball. It is just more fun and exciting to me. It would be a dream come true to witness live a game like this championship game between Hawaii and Long Beach.
Congrats Hawaii.. Jakob Thelle very remarkable game..
Long beach was a one man show. Hawaii was more balanced team.
Seems like theres a touch of nepotism coming from the Beach side. They get some incredible recruits yet can't find a setter that can set the outside a consistent ball. Knipe set the bic with Nikolov way too much and never ran the middles. Hawaii clearly watched that during film and adjusted to it. I'd imagine if Aidan was not Alex's son, there would be someone else out there.
Completely underwhelmed by him. I didn’t watch much men’s this year, just a few games and the tourney, but if my setter hurt his hand slamming a table he’d be on the bench first of all. That’s reckless and dumb and I think that’s his setting style too. Very off sets and poor distribution.
@@mirandafryman7075 unfortunately, their alternate setter is barely 6 foot tall. Such a liability in the blocking. They didn't recruit much setter or people don't want to go to LBSU because they know Knipe will get the start over them.
Just "a touch"?
Best Hawaii squad ever
Cant wait til next season think it’ll be even better. A lot of teams are going to be in a good position with most players coming back 🔥 still think hawaii goes for the 3peat tho
Nikolov should transfer to Hawaii. We can show him how to show more aloha towards the game and the players. He’s young and he let his emotion get the best of him.
Nikolov should have chosen Hawaii FIRST and we would have walked with him and kept him HUMBLE like ALL our Rainbow Warriors are! He is young, but has a terrible attitude cause he feels he's all that. Sorry to wake him up, but he ISN'T even a PART of all that.....
Unfortunately he won’t play for either now because he left to play professionally.
@@vanessademello852 after this summer, no he’s miles ahead of every player in the ncaa. He’s going straight to a top 5 team in the world after one season, and is the best under 19 on the planet.
@@Thomas_Erickson he left long beach after 1 year. Now playing for his Bulgaria and seems to be doing fine.
@@vanessademello852 fully aware. He’s at lube now because of how well he played for Bulgaria.
Bruh these cameras are so shitty💀
This was Nikolov’s last ncaa match.
Yah, Nikolov should have stayed to get an education, but still, congratulations Alex for going pro. Much "ALOHA" to Rado from Hawaii. Good Luck in Bulgaria's matches.
Great game
Finally 😎
Thanks
This was cool to see Men's college volleyball. I've only ever played or watched women's volleyball, and I had no idea that men had a rule that allowed them to chase a ball on the opponent's side, as long as it went outside the antenna! I agree with the commentators that women's volleyball needs this integrated, too!
But this was amazing to watch. Men have a frighteningly powerful jump serve, of which I would be terrified to be on the other end. lolol
It makes me sad that the Southern states, where I'm from, don't hail volleyball as a male sport. It's predominantly a female practice in the South. Men should definitely get the chance to play down here, and it should be promoted for male sports across the college nation. It's a great sport for all, and I love seeing that it brings in a lot of international recruits! It makes for formidable teams with diverse players from around the world. It's so awesome!
Serve and slay, boys! Amazing job!
The Hawaii setter knows how to confuse LB...
Jakob Thelle can become a naturalized American if he wants a career. The team needs a backup setter, as Christenson is the only good and reliable setter playing there.
Love these commentators!
The ones in Hawaii are waaay better.
One of them Barnett is shady especially towards BYU and foreign players.
@@forme3h They’re really good too.
@@kaisanderson9616 Barnett referred to Nikolov and Thelle as the best hitter and setter in the country in the first 10 seconds of this match. He also had positive things to say about the greek UH players and the spaniard/german LB player… Listen 2:15 he literally says these lasts couple of seasons we’ve been getting a tremendous amount of top talented foreigners.
I don’t follow LBSU closely but When was the last time they were swept twice in the same season? I’m surprised. I thought they would’ve been hungry for revenge after Hawaii swept them in the Big West final.
Congrats to Hawaii!!!
Long beach's setter played pretty badly. Missibg his sets and making it tough for his attackers.
17:45
I see what you doing cameraman, you ain't slick. Can't let Luka block your view. 😆
Nepotism at its finest. I hope the coaches son had a good time throwing the game
42:45 still cracks me up
What i would do to have been there
Here's to the green and white.
11 has the longest serve routine
1:09:50 my favourite moment of the game
1:16:45 also cool Hawai'i just put there bodies on the line Mann I love the way they don't give up (imma just leave time stamps lol)
1:25:34 nice and fast unlucky long black tho, very close from the lib
Its fun that the smalest guy in hawai team is 6'3 😀
Nikolov has a horrible attitude never really seen a guy get pissed at his team mates AFTER he shanks a dig to the sideline. 1:00:15 one of many times ...
Olivier looks tired of hearing Nikolov complain/be bossy...
You're right...good catch. I never noticed that...
@@locomojoboy2 do you have proof of that?
@@locomojoboy2 I can see that 'entitled/bully' look in him.... Hawaii doesn't like that kind of attitude. Look at the great UH athletes in pretty much any sport - they're humble.
@@conn_man_249 yeah. Watch the 2022 Big West Championship that was held in Hawaii against Hawaii. He was disrespectful and got pissed through the net at the Hawaii player. This was literally right after the UCI semifinal match where he did the same thing.
I am proud woman of culture
Back to backk
What does that gesture at about 1:38:49 mean? The LB libero does it too...
They're saying they saw a touch (or trying to manifest a touch)
Best point celebration 1:22:26
NCAA volleyball is this big in the US, i dont understand why it doesnt translate to bigger support to their national teams?
When you wrote this comment, volleyball was not getting the same amount of TV time as other sports because fewer people watched (and therefore fewer ad dollars were coming in). It's definitely been changing; they aired a women's B1G regular season match on cable TV for the first time I can remember, Nebraska set the attendance record for a volleyball match and for most-attended women's sporting event worldwide, and the US now has the Pro Volleyball Federation (Rise Up!). Unfortunately, men's is still nowhere close to being available on cable TV, or even anything other than ESPN+.
Flubbed sets off of defensive saves for L.B. lost it for them.
Is that a demon slayer tattoo on one of the guys arms? thats sick
1:11:33 nice to know
Cover it from the back like tennis.
Need new announcers who aren’t biased. The younger dude was ok. But please retire the old guy who clearly is a LB fan.
The few words on cp3 season aged not well …
51:48
55:21 Cheehuu 😂
Nets too low.
0:41 tall people have it easy lol
21:18
12:12 - excuse me????
When I see the serves I remember Asami and Kagiyama
H,,👍👍👍🇮🇩LB,,👍👍👍
Who tf is that girl screaming behind Hawaii every time they serves lmao

1:00:10
Can anyone explain why Nikolov is so pissed when he's the one who shanked it into the stands?
Tiny dude in the gold uniform for Long Beach is annoying af. Needs to grow up.
one of the best players on the court though
horrible video quality
I think it is wrong that young men from other countries come to the US to train and then we will see them competing against our teams at the international level there is plenty of national talents that need to seek and give them that opportunity,
They also come here for degrees
Why are they saying Thelle should have gotten POY when he’s 11th at his position?
He was 11th in assists per set. That doesn’t necessarily mean he was 11th in his position as it’s not always a reflection of the setter. For one, Thelle is very offensive so he gets more kills himself and therefore less assists than other setters. Additionally, his and his teammates are more efficient in other skills such as their serving and blocking so there are less points scored from kills. And, he doesn’t have a stand out like Nikola to feed consistently to get kills. That’s why his assists per set are lower. But it’s clear by how often he can get his hitters one on one opportunities and by how well rounded he is that he’s the best setter in the ncaa.
Because Thelle setting has had UH beat BYU 3-0 in last year's National Championship, beat #1 Long Beach St. 3-0 the week before at the Big West Championship, and beat #1 ranked Long Beach St. 3-0 in this National Championship. Who did they name the player of the year? The freshman player who lost 6 straight sets to Thelle and UH. Overhyped freshman player who when shut down shuts down the whole team. This is a TEAM sport which shows exactly why Thelle should be the MVP and POY!
I think you are basing it on assist per set. But what if the team is a good blocking team? A good serving team? There will be little opportunities for a setter of a good blocking or serving team to set the ball because the ball is killed in the block or serve already. Unfortunately in the setter position they don't mention the excellent sets over total sets attempted.
Kangitngit ba
Disagree with Kevin and Paul, as well as the officials' ruling of that crucial call in Set 3. That's a penetration/interference by the Hawaii player of the LB's setter who has a right to make a setting attempt on the ball.
Watch at 1:33:42 where #5 also hits the net with his left hand or back.
@@hankakah4180 Exactly...moot point...
When the ball is already above the net, its free for all.
@Willam K, the setter was a back row player so your point is moot.
Bruddah, that ball Aiden interfered with, was traveling right on the net, which makes it our ball to knock out. Further more he was a BACK ROW PLAYER...
Non of these guys from the states WTF
@Zeke. Hawaii’s starters Cole Hogland is from Hawaii, Chaz Galloway & Brett Sheward are from California. Do your research before you comment ….
Are there any Americans playing.
Lots dude, do your research before you comment.
None of these hawaiian team look hawaiian...
So what! What does long beach supposed to look like, "Beachy". STUPID
Hahaha! So what's your point? There are local players on the team.
There are many foreigners on the Hawaii team. It should have a limit. In LBS there are only 2 foreigners in the starting lineup.
Fr
I mean, BYU had more foreign starters than Hawaii last season and BYU lost to Hawaii in the 2021 championship. It’s not so much on where they come from, it’s what each player can bring to the table. If a foreigner wants to come to America to play volleyball, we shouldn’t restrict them from not being able to play on the court.
Then Americans needs to just play better.
AND ,what's wrong with that ,if they choose UH over any other school that's their choice.
What difference does it make. Those players are free to choose to attend and play for any school.
Any school can choose to pursue and try to recruit those same players as well.
Why don't you bring up a bigger issue, how much money each school has to fund and promote their sports teams. Why not make it a pool of money and all schools have the same amount or a hard cap to how much money they can spend to make things more even for all sports.
Collegiate gimme a break. Foreigners galore. USA??
Yeah, why not more Native Americans playing instead of all these foreigners from America and the rest of the world.
@@ramenlover1727 Well the US formed when 13 colonies revolted against GB.
@@ramenlover1727 And the US escalated it to a whole other level.
Granted, different times, different thought processes but the crimes of the new nation far exceeded those of the old.
Well, no discrimination here. But I think it’s a great thing since the USA men can gain experience with all these different foreign styles and plays. Plus, USA has a very legit and a great national team, them being from NCAA and its experience.
are americans basically all foreigners? america is even named after vespucci who is italian.
