Coaches and media gave Punahou nine of 10 first-place votes as the Buffanblu remained at No. 1 in the Star-Advertiser Boys Basketball Top 10 released Monday.
Punahou edged Maryknoll 47-42 and Mid-Pacific 46-39 last week to open Interscholastic League of Honolulu play. The Buffanblu are 18-1 overall. The only loss came against Lincoln (Calif.).
