>> Kalaheo has not won an opener since 2011. The Mustangs have lost four games in a row. Kalaheo visited the Warriors to open the 2003 season and lost 26-23. It is the only meeting between the schools.
>> Nanakuli visited Kapaa to open the 2013 season and lost 56-12. That is the only other meeting between the schools. The Golden Hawks had a 12 game winning streak before losing at states last year.
>> Punahou and Leilehua have met only twice before, a 38-7 win by Punahou in 2007 and a 28-19 victory by the Buffanblu in 2007. Punahou has won five season openers in a row. Leilehua has not lost a season opener since 2010.
