HONOLULU – University of Hawai’i Athletics Director David Matlin has lifted the interim tag from Evan Silberstein of the Rainbow Wahine beach volleyball program and has officially named him head coach of the team. 

Silberstein, who has coached at UH for the last eight years, served as the interim head coach this past season, leading the BeachBows back to the NCAA Tournament after a one-year absence. At season’s end, he was awarded 2022 Big West Co-Coach of the Year. 

“We are pleased to keep Evan in our ‘ohana,” Matlin said. “Evan has played a major role in the success of our beach volleyball program over the years, first as an assistant and this past season as our interim head coach. His passion for the sport, the University, the local community and our student-athletes is unparalleled. He’s earned this position and we look forward to watching our beach program continue to flourish under his stewardship.”
