Ahuna resigns as HPU volleyball coach

Advertiser Staff

Reydan "Tita" Ahuna, who guided Hawaii Pacific University women's volleyball to two national championships, resigned today, citing personal reasons, the school announced.

Ahuna, who had just completed her 10th season at HPU, leaves the program with a 207-58 record.

She led the Sea Warriors to two NCAA II National Championships, and five Pacific West Conference titles. This past season, she earned her 200th career victory while guiding HPU to the semifinals of the NCAA West Regional Tournament.

Along with her duties as head coach, Ahuna also served as the Senior Women's Administrator the past four years.

"Tita was a very valuable and appreciated member of HPU who always represented herself and the University in a positive manner," HPU Athletics Director Jill Ward said in a statement. "She will be missed and we wish her continued success in her future endeavors."
