Warriors, Buffanblu going to five

By Jerry Campany on November 1, 2013

Just as it was meant to be, Punahou and Kamehameha are going to a fifth set. The ILH rivals will play for the fifth time this season on Friday, but only the winner will be crowned state champion. The Warriors have won three of the four matchups after dominating the first two. But as they knew when they both started this conquest, it always comes down to the last game. Kamehameha swept Moanalua and Punahou obliterated Mililani in the semifinals […]

Trench Warfare 6: Kaumatule vs. Kamehameha

By Jerry Campany on October 31, 2013

Trench Warfare is going to have to take a different approach in this one, as Punahou’s Canton Kaumatule takes on Kamehameha guards Radson Jang, Joshua Ancheta and a host of others. Kaumatule has rarely played this year, but he doesn’t miss the big games. Kamehameha runs a host of blockers at the beast, making a 1-on-1 matchup difficult. All judging is on the 10-point must system and completely subjective. Round 1 Kaumatule starts out against Jang, a junior. He shed […]

Moanalua, Mililani try to buck history

By Jerry Campany on October 31, 2013

Who is it going to be? Moanalua? Mililani? Most likely neither. Both OIA programs have a chance to knock off an ILH power in tonight’s semifinals of the New City Nissan/HHSAA Girls Volleyball State Championships on the Kamehameha-Hawaii campus. Moanalua plays top seed Kamehameha while OIA champ Mililani takes on Punahou. The OIA champion Trojans have been in the semifinals in each of the last two years, only to be ousted by an ILH power, eventual champion Punahou last year […]

Trench Warfare 5: Mika Tafua vs. Jared Caputy

By Jerry Campany on October 30, 2013

This one is going to be either really fun or really boring, as Kamehameha’s Mika Tafua usually lines up all over the defense and they may rarely engage. His favorite spot is as a standup speed rusher from the left edge, though, so Punahou’s Jared Caputy might get more than a few shots at him. Tafua stands 6-3 and a slender 220 pounds while Caputy is 6-2 but weighs 250. IF these two superstars do hook up, we are in […]

Cosbie’s 1st season at Kamehameha a good one

By Billy Hull on October 30, 2013

In terms of trophies and titles, Kamehameha won’t have anything to show for coach Doug Cosbie‘s first season as head football coach. To say it wasn’t a success, however, would be just plain wrong. Kamehameha began the year regarded as the third-best ILH Division I team. When it’s all said and done, there’s a chance Kamehameha ends up ranked as the second-best team in the entire state when the final Star-Advertiser Top 10 poll comes out. The Warriors did it […]

Trench Warfare 4: Marc Ma vs. Daniel Eli

By Jerry Campany on October 29, 2013

The ‘Iolani defensive tackle and the Damien guard won’t bang heads on every play, as Marc Ma flip-flops the side he is playing on, but they will certainly bang heads enough. Daniel Eli, a senior, enjoys a weight advantage at 5-foot-7, 270 pounds but Ma (6-2, 214) holds a decided reach advantage. All scoring is 10-point must, and completely subjective. Round 1 The first time the two engage, Eli gets help from Paul Galang. It doesn’t become a theme, though, […]
