JAM AQUINO / APRIL 10, 2015

Hawaii head coach Charlie Wade talks to Hawaii’s Kolby Kanetake (6) in the second set of a men’s college volleyball game between the Hawaii Rainbow Warriors and the Stanford Cardinal on April 10, 2015 at the Stan Sheriff Center.

The University of Hawaii and men’s volleyball coach Charlie Wade are finalizing details on a contract extension.

Financial details were not available. The contract extension reportedly is for three years.

“We’re in the final stages of working on a multi-year contract with Charlie,” UH athletic director David Matlin told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser today. “We’re excited to have him continue on as our Warrior head coach.”

Wade signed a five-year contract in 2009 as successor to Mike Wilton. In 2014, Wade signed a two-year extension that expires at the end of this month.

Wade has a 107-91 record in seven seasons as UH head coach. Under Wade, the Warriors qualified for the postseason five times, including an advancement to the NCAA tournament in 2015. The Warriors are 40-19 the past two seasons.
