May the man for Campbell

By Jerry Campany on October 19, 2013

In many ways, running back Austin May is the forgotten man in Campbell’s pass-happy offense.

Whenever Campbell needed a yard or two, Hurd would go […]

The handshakes between Pearl City players and their Kalani counterparts began with 1:30 left on the clock and the Chargers still needing to take two knees to end it. The red-clad crowd stood, clapped and cheered well after the final whistle. The respect all around Radford’s stadium was obvious on Friday night. Kalani earned that this season, a banner year that came to an end at 6-4 with a 28-14 loss to Pearl City on Friday night in the OIA […]
