UH-Hilo: Vuls hope home matches are worth the wait

Got plans this fall?

The Vulcans do.

The UH-Hilo volleyball and soccer programs unveiled their 2017 schedules, and if there is a common theme it’s back-loaded home schedules.

Volleyball coach Gene Krieger embarks on his first season with two road trips before a home opener against Academy of Art on Sept 22. That Pacific West Conference contest starts the first of two four-match homestands on a 26-game slate, 10 of which are at UH-Hilo gym.

Kreiger will have seven returnees when training camp opens in August and eight newcomers.

“The Pacific West Conference is one of the most talented in the country,” Kreiger said in a university release.
