Dante may be out for Pepperdine volleyball match

By Stephen Tsai

The University of Hawai'i volleyball team might be without its best middle blocker when it plays top-ranked Pepperdine on Thursday in the Stan Sheriff Center.

Dio Dante injured his left foot when he stepped on a wana while swimming Friday off Waikiki.

"There's a first time for everything," Dante said. "It's really sore. I can't even walk around. It's one of those injuries you can't do anything about."

Dante's left foot was bandaged yesterday. He did not compete in practice. He said his availability is in question for Thursday's match.
