The third-ranked Hawaii men’s volleyball team ended its regular season on the wrong end of a 25-22, 25-22, 27-25 sweep by No. 18 UC Santa Barbara today at The Thunderdome in Santa Barbara, Calif.

For all the big hits and hooking serves Finn Kearney hit over the weekend, his work in the back row is what impressed Hawaii coach Charlie Wade the most. Kearney, forced into the starting lineup for the second and third times this season with opposite Kristian Titriyski out with an injury, was named the Big West Conference Freshman of the Week on Monday after back-to-back, 17-kill efforts led No. 3 Hawaii to a split against No. 1 Long Beach State.

Midseason form. #Mariners

19 strikeouts. 1-for-19 with RISP. A wasted gem from your starter. Maybe the most Mariners loss of all.
