The University of Hawaii women’s volleyball team has added two transfers to its 2026 roster.
Maeli Cormier, a 6-foot-2 pin hitter who played at Oregon State this past season, and Panna Ratkai, a 5-foot-10 outside hitter from Dayton, have signed to play for the Rainbow Wahine and will enroll for the spring semester, UH announced this afternoon.
Cormier will have three seasons of eligibility remaining. Ratkai will be a senior.
“Both Maeli and Panna add a lot of maturity and competitiveness that will immediately upgrade our gym and culture the moment they step foot on campus, ” Hawaii coach Robyn Ah Mow said in a news release.
Cormier, who is originally from Quebec, Canada, was the starting opposite on Canada’s U-21 team at the NORCECA Continental Championship in 2024 in Toronto and led the team in kills in the tournament. She was second with 266 total kills for Oregon State last season and played with former UH setter Jackie Matias.
Ratkai, who is originally from Budapest, Hungary, was a two-time Horizon League Player of the Year at Purdue Fort Wayne before playing at Dayton in 2025. She competed for the Hungarian National Team last summer.
UH previously announced the signing of two freshmen for the 2026 class—Cameron Holcomb, a 5-foot-8 freshman defensive specialist from San Marcos, Calif., and 6-foot-3 middle Rachel Purser from Henderson, Nev.
Hawaii lost three seniors to graduation and three other players entered the transfer portal.
Middle Maddie Way announced on social media earlier this week she will play for Saint Mary’s (Calif.) next season. Setter Audrey Hollis and outside hitter Ravyn Dash are also in the transfer portal.
