We didn't put the ball away. We committed too many hitting errors. The passing wasn't very good. It was a whole team thing.

I have no complaints about the selections, there's nothing surprising.

We thought he could have been a pretty good Division I volleyball player. He could have been an All-American. But he decided to go to HPU and play basketball, and he was a good basketball player. It was economics. You can get a full ride at HPU and Hilo, but only a partial scholarship here.

He's a very bright guy. Coming from Europe and experiencing so many different things, he's really open-minded.

He can really hit it. We knew that.

When we were getting pretty close to signing him, he called us from one of his maneuvers. I asked him, 'Where are you guys?' He said, 'Up north.' I said, 'Where up north?' He said, 'The Arctic Circle.' That was different. He e-mailed us a picture from there. He had his parka off.

We've never seen (Fisher) before. He attacked well.

But we had Sean Carney and Brian Beckwith. We couldn't afford another setter. He made a good choice going to Santa Barbara. He's a nice player.

Brazil's (lineup) is like the Yankees' Murderers' Row.
