The Hawaii team qualified for the Final Four of the US college championship after defeating Southern California 3:1 (25:22, 24:26, 25:23, 32:30) in a historic match played in front of 10,300 spectators in Honolulu – an NCAA record. Levski's youth player Kristian Titriyski was the team's leader and top scorer in the match, finishing with 22 points (19 from attack and 3 from block).
The opposite hitter showed class in key moments – closing out the first set and securing a lead in the third, while remaining stable in attack in the tense fourth set.
Adrien Roure also played a key role with 13 points and an impressive 7 aces, setting an NCAA record in a four-set match. His series of four consecutive aces in the fourth set gave Hawaii a significant lead.
Hawaii started strong and took the lead after 25:22. In the second set, USC reacted and equalized after better attacking efficiency.
The third set was evenly matched, but a run by the home team and stable play from Titriyski brought a 2:1 lead.
In the fourth set, Hawaii had a comfortable lead but allowed an equalization. True drama followed – the team missed six match points before closing out the match at 32:30 after an opponent's error.

Hawaii (28 wins - 5 losses) reaches the Final Four for the second consecutive year and for the 11th time in its history overall. In the semifinals, the team will face Alex Kundev's Long Beach State in a rematch of the Big West conference final.
Kristian Titriyski's strong performance solidifies his role as a key figure for the team in the most crucial phase of the season.
