KITV: Congressman Kahele congratulates UH men's volleyball, NCAA champs

2021 NCAA Champs, the University of Hawaii's Men's Rainbow Warriors volleyball team, received praise from our nation's Capitol Wednesday.

Hawaii U.S. Congressman Kai Kahele -- a former UH volleyball player himself -- took the floor honoring the team.

"The Rainbow Warriors dominated Brigham Young University in a three-set sweep showcasing to the nation the qualities of a team hungry for a national championship -- only made possible through years of hard work, perseverance, grit, mental fortitude, and sportsmanship," Kahele stated. "As a former Rainbow Warriors volleyball player, & proud alumni, I know how much this victory means to the program and all of Hawaii."

Representative Kahele also thanked Head Coach Charlie Wade, the coaching staff, the athletics program, players, and the UH fans.
