News & Updates

  1. UHD Men’s Volleyball Club played their first tournament on February 24, 2024, since inception. Everyone was both excited and nervous in the beginning but slowly played into form as the tournament progressed. Expectations weren’t high since they had only recently learned a new system for both offense and defense and the team’s starting setter, Alex Bonilla, wasn’t available. Fortunately John Nguyen stepped up into the setting role, however this necessary adjustment dealt a massive blow to the team production on the outside hitter position. Team Captain, Luis Moreno, did all he could taking huge swings at the other Outside Hitter position. This tournament served as a good benchmark and gave us valuable lessons as to what areas we needed to focus on during training.

  2. UHD Men’s Volleyball Club players were eager to get back to training after their first tournament experience. After just a couple of weeks of training, they entered their second tournament on March 9, 2024, and put to test what they’ve worked on. Armed with confidence and more refined skills, they came away winning more games against higher level teams and ultimately winning the Silver Division.

  3. History has been made as UHD Men’s Volleyball Club Team hosted University of Houston for its first ever collegiate match on April 14, 2024. They came out firing in all cylinders wining the first game. Sadly, we made too many unforced errors due to UH good defense skills and we just needed to be more stable. The team was still ecstatic vowed to continue to work hard and hone their skills on the court both physically and mentally.
  4. UHD Men’s Volleyball Club showed up in full force to the UHD One Main Event Banquet where John Nguyen received his Most Valuable Player Award. The rest of players also received certificates from the coaching staff. We had a blast and also bonded with the UHD Women’s Volleyball Club players
