Hawaii setter Joe Worsley, middle blocker Patrick Gasman and outside hitter Stijn Van Tilburg blocked an attempt from CSUN outside hitter Ksawery Tomsia in the first set.

Junior opposite Rado Parapunov put down 17 kills and No. 2 Hawaii ran its NCAA-record consecutive sets-won to 51 with a 25-16, 25-17, 25-18 sweep of No. 12 Cal State Northridge in tonight’s Big West volleyball match at the Stan Sheriff Center.

Senior middle Dalton Solbrig added 10 kills without an error, hitting a career-high .909, and hitter Stijn van Tilburg and junior hitter Colton Cowell each had nine eight kills for the Rainbow Warriors (17-0, 4-0 Big West).

The Matadors (10-10, 0-4) were led by senior hitter Dimitar Kalchev’s nine kills. It was the sixth consecutive loss by CSUN in Honolulu dating back to 2015.
