By Christian Shimabuku on August 16, 2019

Oct. 19, 2018 and Feb. 14, 2019 are days that live in infamy for the St. Francis football program. The first date was when the Saints, who were 9-0 at the time, were forced to forfeit their season due to an ineligible player. The second date is when the school announced it was shutting its doors for good. Members of the 2018 team who still had eligibility left are scattered across Oahu. Thursday night’s matchup between Farrington and visiting Campbell […]

Kahuku adds athlete Mana Fonoimoana-Vaomu to QB rotation

By Christian Shimabuku on August 10, 2019

When Kahuku’s Mana Fonoimoana-Vaomu lined up behind center and took the team’s first snaps at quarterback against Kamehameha, it wasn’t a gimmick. Fonoimoana-Vaomu was primarily a safety as a sophomore and junior. He still lined up in the secondary against the Warriors and also held punting responsibilities for the Red Raiders. But quarterback was also on the list of duties for the 5-foot-10, 182-pound senior, who completed his only pass attempt for four yards and rushed eight times for 52 […]

By Christian Shimabuku on August 10, 2019

No. 5 Kahuku 21, No. 6 Kamehameha 13, Final 9:09: The Kahuku defense comes through again. Kana Fonoimoana with a big-time third down sack, then Mana Fonoimoana picks off the fourth down pass. The Red Raiders take one knee to run out the clock. 21-13 is your final. What a game. 9:05: Kamehameha appears to have made a big gain to the 9 but it’s negated by an offensive pass interference call. Ball now at the Kahuku 41 with 1:37 […]

By Christian Shimabuku on August 10, 2019

Alfred Failauga’s special night could pale in comparison to what’s likely to happen in six days. The 342 rushing yards he produced on 31 carries in a 49-28 win at Castle on Friday were the fifth most in a single game in Oahu history. He also added five touchdowns, which all came in the second half. His performance against the Knights, was nothing short of amazing. In the process, he also leapfrogged Kahuku’s Mark Atuaia and Aofaga Wily and ‘Iolani’s […]
