Krisyian Tytriyski finished with a team-high 15 points (1 ace, 2 blocks) in Hawaii's five-set victory over #9 Stanford yesterday in the first of two non-conference matches at SimpliFi Arena at Stan Sheriff Center.
The Rainbow Warriors (9-0) remained undefeated on the year and extended their positive streak against the Cardinal to 12 matches, including 10 consecutive at home. An audience of over 6800 people witnessed a hard-fought match, including a decisive fifth set, before setter Tread Rosenthal's finishing point.

Center Kurt Nusterer's serve proved crucial in the match. He made two aces during an 8-0 run in the third set, which boosted UH's comeback in the third set, and his ace in the fifth set capped a three-point run that gave the Warriors a 7-6 lead.
In total, the Hawaii team recorded 11 aces, three of which were by Nusterer and Tread Rosenthal.

Stanford-Hawaii 2:3 (25:23, 20:25, 19:25, 25:20, 14:16)

The teams play again on Friday at 7:00 PM in SimpliFi Arena.
