Powerful Govs keeping perspective

By Paul Honda on December 3, 2014

One season removed from a stunning run to the state championship game, expectations at Farrington High School are bit tempered. One thing that hasn’t changed is the result. The Governors were overwhelming on Wednesday, rolling to a 77-27 win over Honokaa on the first day of the 16th annual James Alegre Invitational boys basketball tournament. L.J. Gonzales scored 16 points off the bench as coach Allan Silva put all 16 players to work against a young Honokaa squad. Farrington opened […]

LIVE BLOG: Farrington 77, Honokaa 27, Final

By Paul Honda on December 3, 2014

The 16th annual James Alegre Invitational boys basketball tournament is tipping off. Honokaa of the BIIF and Farrington of the OIA are in pre-game introductions. Interesting transition for the Governors, who lost several starters to graduation off a team that reach the state final last season. Worth noting that the Govs do have Tua Unutoa back from last year’s squad. They also have Kamehameha transfer Jaycob Smith and St. Francis transfers Keola Kealoha and Ranan Mamiya. Also, Bryce Tatupu-Leopoldo turned […]

Twice the fun: 2 tourneys at Saint Louis

By Paul Honda on December 2, 2014

I’m probably the only one who was baffled by this for a few moments, but thanks to Wade Okamura, the mini-mystery has been solved. I’d heard that the Walter Wong tournament would be after Christmas. Then a coach informed me that his team was playing in this longtime even on Dec. 18. Huh? Then Okamura, the athletic director at Saint Louis, sent me the schedules. Plural. McCabe Gym is going to be busy. From Dec. 18-20, the Crusaders will host […]
