The 2022 Hawaii Rainbow Warriors volleyball team represents the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (UH) in the 2022 NCAA Division I & II men's volleyball season. The Rainbow Warriors, led by 13th-year head coach Charlie Wade, play home games at Stan Sheriff Center on the UH campus in the Honolulu neighborhood of Mānoa. The Rainbow Warriors, members of the Big West Conference, were picked by Big West coaches to share the conference in its preseason poll with Long Beach State.[1] The Rainbow Warriors enter the season the defending national champions after defeating BYU in the 2021 national championship.[2] The national championship was Hawai'i's first men's volleyball national championship after they had to vacate the 2002 national championship.
