*gets hit in the face* Canada: *silent* you good? UCLA dude: yeah Canada: *celebrates point*

The big thing to take away from all of this is that Trinity Western players have immaculate mustaches that allow them to play at a higher level

UCLA got absolutely outclassed in these games. Almost everything on TWU's side was clean and UCLA looked like a bunch of good players that struggled to play together

TWU is in a class of it's own. Team chemistry, transitions, defense, and offense seems to be at a much higher level than UCLA. At that level of playing, I'm surprised to see so many 1-on-1 blocks.

The 2019-2020 TWU team was literally unbeatable. Crazy how they are still on top.

The setter's precision in these sets is phenomenal!

10:28 the setter really set the pipe 3 times in a row

This is everything volleyball is made for, it's fast paced but could be analyzed for hours, it's free form but refined to the absolute best it can be, they're using all of their weapons effectively and dealing with their opponents weapons very efficiently. What an incredible game.

Can we talk about how well TCU blocks? Mate, unreal. They took ALL the energy from UCLA with continual monster block after monster block.

For ppl who don’t know TWU, there’s like 5 alum on team Canada and tons playing pro in Europe. It’s a small Christian Uni in Langley, British Columbia know for volleyball.

13:57 that block effort after recovering from the feint doe O_O. Gave a WHOLE new meaning to the phrase "double block" MAH GAWWWWD

TWU serves are so damn crisps, it's always tight to the net, errors are rare, curves are big. Their Outside Faked Set also is done like the Japaneses, Ishikawa and Takahashi have their hitting form with one arm high and one arm wind up before forming the setter hand and TWU got it just like that. Others usually have setter hands right after jumping and the only deceptive part is their aggressive approach and take off. The blocks are also deceptive as fuck, they're not just blocking where their torso is at, jump for an angle and diving their arms to the line vice versa. All the rear blockers assist with pipes and quicks too. Most of the time their upper chest is above the net and that's really damn high. Because they've trained with good serves, their receives are also solid, and the setter who magnificently put his magic into the offense and it shows. Spikers are also skilled af, height, advance tooling, off speed and precise power shots they got it all I'm a new fan now lmao

2:06 white balance in camera changed so fast) 10:29 This tripple pipe is awesome, on the third attempt - Just give him that ball again)

Ok seriously what the heck !? How did this one camera capture more excitement, power and speed in one game than the multiple cameras they have at international games ! Some of these boys can hit! Great camera work !

It's amazing that this high level volleyball game is being watched by three people.

trinity western is on another level..

twu setter's connection with his hitters miles ahead. he's also just filthy

When you look up team chemistry in the dictionary you see a picture of TWU.

Damn UCLA got dusted... Had em singing "Oh Canada!" by the end of the match.

TWU is the definition of volleyball level in between professional and college

Your camera angle was perfect - wish more games could be filmed like this! Thanks for posting. I am hoping that some of the other TWU games vs Cali teams over Christmas might get posted!

Four defenders going for the pancake at 6:15. Incredible defence!

10:36 I never get tired of watching this magnificent attack sequence!!

I've said it once and I'll say it again, a match between TWU (this year or during the 2019-2020 season) and the Tuaniga-Defalco-Ensing LBSU team would be incredible to watch

From a high level, the biggest mistake/gap was the middle blocker mismatch. UCLA setter barely used his middles, even on good passes. While TWU used the middle as their anchor. - This changes the ENTIRE game. Watch the pin hitters, when TWU is attacking, UCLA is only successfully putting up 1 or 1.5 block, while the TWU middles are double blocking almost anything due to the middles leaving early, and DARING them to set middle, which has barely happened (9:55 the middles run so rarely, no one was on him at all = free net) . This causes more digs for TWU AND increases their attacking %. all based on who dominated the middle. --- (obviously it skips points, they may have tried to run the middles in those plays, but not in these highlights) -- I think it super interesting how a dominant middle can influence the entire game.

Los veo jugar y eso me da la motivación suficiente para seguir mejorando en este deporte tan completo y magnífico

Damn this team’s system is hella confusing at first haha 😂 They’ve got 4 guys that play in at least 2 spots. 5 is oh and opp in the back row sometimes. 6 is an opp, setter and oh. 16 is a middle and opp. 20 is a setter and middle. I’m probably still missing something too. It’s definitely cool to watch and mad respect to those guys for being able to make it work so well!

Wow, these spikes and serves are so powerful. I'm shocked. What a game though!

2:16 Mad props to that setter for that!

The chemistry and transition is *BEAUITFUL*

I begun to play volley because of your videos man, keep up the good content!!

Jackson Howe's (#7 TWU) vert and power running out of the middle is CRAZY

TWU's Chemistry and all-round play is astounding. I'm going to train harder now!

the blocking and defense from TWU is just amazing to watch

Thanks for uploading! Have been looking for TWU footage

This is Division I UCLA Bruins, right? #4 ranking in 2021? One of the powerhouses of collegiate sports? They looked like a bunch of bench warmers compared to TWU...whom I have never heard of before until I watched this video...#1 rank above the 44th parallel...I knew Canadian volleyball was getting better, but I was in awe of the Spartans...3 straight...WTF!!! It was impressive!

Can we agree whenever he uploads our day gets 100% better?

For those that don’t know, TWU head coach Ben Josephson will be coaching Team Canada come this VNL. Will be interesting if he can improve team Canada!

TWU on another level. 13:58 play of the gm.

14:10 HOG RIDAAAA

6:05 that was insane 🔥

brodie hofer's pipes are so satisfying idk why, he's the main reason why i got into volleyball. Great job twu!

i love these videos because its fast phase, no commentary besides the occasional oohs and every cut is straight to the serve.

Amazing sequence at 1:15 . Runs tempo pipe, becomes setter on the recycle.

0:41 goddamn that synchro attack

The TWU setter is so good

Yaaas i love these videos:) keep up the awesome work man

The jump set after 12:18 is sick …. Plays like that don’t get enough mention

What a game!

Nice video! Both teams did good, I enjoyed the play

I love the editing on the video, just the REAL game. New Suscriber here ^^

Amazing camera! makes the game look so interesting

They make it look so easy

8:18 damn bro that quick is so dope

HES BACK WITH THE MONTHLY UPLOAD LEZ GOOO

Yo I don’t know if you guys know but TWU came second in Canada today and watching them play here was incredible.

the energy from TWU gives me an adrenaline rush

TWU is fire bro. The chemistry and setting locations not to mention serves. Oh yeah and them shorts are nice too. Eoooow.

Thx für the Upload, youre the goat

YESSS I WAS LOOKING AT THESE ON UCLA AND TWU INSTA.

10:28 is the Canadian pipeline. Also figures people who live in the snow would know alot about roofs.

im proud to be canadian. thank you team. good work.

i appreciate the upload!!!

Пацаны вы так круто играете.Я получаю такой кайф от этого

I've been watching number 7 on twu for a while, Guy's a monster

kinda off topic but the double sided blade of losing/winning a bunch of points in a row is great. on one hand youre beyond mad you keep loosing, but on the other youre so fired up to proove to you and your teammates that you CAN receive that serve is so just MMMM

Howe to do it!!! You Spartans all shine.

Хороший уровень волейбола, молодцы. У нас нет такого в колледжах.

Alot of this in my opinion had to do with setting. TWU's setter seemed to be placing his sets perfectly and specifically tailored to each hitters style. UCLA's setter was placing them awkwardly and timing them inconsistenly leading to a lot of week hits or just tips/freeballs.

I can't wait to see the play MAC. should be phenomenal

the hitting was hella good but the setting man... that was like perfect I would be so happy if I had a setter like that..

yo this was a decent game but absolute masterclass on TWU's part.

TWUs walked every team on their trip so far

Best volleyball I have watched in a long time

It's weird seeing people I played against in high school on your channel now lol

What an amazing video, watch the infection climbing here in Europe and miss the days.

It's astonishing to see players handle balls this well

Awesome match Trinity!!! I knew you were good but this is insane. Go Canada!!! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

That was a good game! I remember playing this game, the other team was a great sport(UCLA)! So glad I got to participate(#20)!

Yooo I was there on the other side! Such a fun match to watch even though UCLA lost

We want the comeback of Santa Barbara !!!!

6:14 is crazy, usually only one person goes for the ball since they're so coordinated but in that instant they all realized nobody had the ball and went for it

10:27 man I used to love when my setter used to feed me the set b2bs like that. Gives you such a good feeling when they're digging your hits but then u get second chances to put it away. He had three in this one and I bet he was fired up lol.

Imagine being ucla and getting this practice match wow!

TWU’s setter can play any bad pass 🤩

Damn, never expected to see my alma mater on this channel! 😎

I don’t even play volleyball and I got recommended this, UKposts did not disappoint

que time forte boy, queria participar desse time :(

trinity western is still very very good even without their star outside who graduated. I hope UCLA was just experimenting with their line up cause that was hard to watch

This game is on a whole another level.

Haven’t been able to play in two years. Really missing it.

@13:55 Number 5 fell for the fake but still blocked the spike!

Feels like it’s professionals vs amateurs

Incredible skills. Wow

Best game I’ve seen in a long time.

TWU setter is really good

8:14 such an insane quick attack

So thankful to be able to watch TWU in action regularly at my university! Go University of Alberta Bears!!

6:52 is a crazy example of how even with everything not on your side, with experience and technique you can fix it to make it a point

Lol this has been happening since 1988 to all #1 us colleges....from the Winnipeg Wesmen, Manitoba Bisons, Saskatchewan Huskies, Laval Rouge et Or....5hey have taken their turns showing Ucla, Long Beach state, stanford, penn state, hawaii, etc that University volleyball in Canada is for real. Trinity western has been on a tear here in Canada and not surprised that UCLA got "spanked". Its too bad University sports in Canada does not get the televised as it does in the usa.
