By Billy Hull on September 12, 2019

Mililani offensive lineman Sergio Muasau has been named a Polynesian Bowl All-Star. The 6-foot, 315-pound senior is the fourth Trojans player to be selected to the game, joining defensive lineman Shane Kady and linebackers Muelu Iosefa and Bam Amina. Muasau was named to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser All-State third team last season as a junior. The other 15 players selected to the game from Hawaii high schools are Saint Louis linebackers Jordan Botelho and Nick Herbig and defensive tackle Stanley McKenzie, […]

Kahuku gets its second 2020 Polynesian Bowl All-Star

By Billy Hull on September 12, 2019

Kahuku cornerback Kaonohi Kaniho, a 6-foot, 180-pound senior, has been named a 2020 Polynesian Bowl All-Star. Kaniho, who has committed to play for Boise State next year, where he will play with brother Kekaula, is back to form this season after suffering a knee injury that forced him to miss most of his junior season. He was one of only two players to make the Honolulu Star-Advertiser All-State first team two years ago as a sophomore. Kaniho is the 18th […]

San Francisco 49ers lineman DeForest Buckner continues to give back to Waianae

By Nick Abramo on September 12, 2019

DeForest Buckner didn’t attend Waianae High, but he is a Waianae boy and he cares deeply about his roots. Buckner, the former Punahou and Oregon football star and now a defensive lineman for the San Francisco 49ers, made good on his pledge of $10,000 in Nike athletic apparel to the Waianae volleyball teams. The teams received the goods last month at the school gym from Buckner’s mom Maria Toilolo-Buckner, who lives in Waianae with husband George Buckner. DeForest Buckner made […]

Energetic, veteran Mililani volleyball team off to 4-0 start

By Nick Abramo on September 12, 2019

Three people were asked if Falanika Danielson has improved over a year ago. All three said yes. Now a senior, Danielson — a 5-foot-6 Mililani outside hitter who finished No. 7 in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser’s All-State Girls Volleyball Fab 15 a year ago — was one of those asked. Here’s her first-hand account: “I believe I did improve, especially on different shots and my vertical and me being able to see the block and what’s open. I’ve also been improving […]

Roosevelt rolls into stadium looking for shutout record

By Jerry Campany on September 11, 2019

After going neck and neck for eight quarters last year, Pac-Five and coach Kip Botelho know as much about Roosevelt as anyone does. Unfortunately for the Wolf Pack, Botelho can throw all of that game footage aside. Kui Kahooilihala‘s Rough Riders are a completely different animal this year, riding a passing offense and stifling defense that has obliterated everyone in its path. Pac-Five will be tasked with slowing it on Friday at Aloha Stadium. Roosevelt is 4-0 this year, their […]

Waiakea shows high-minded spirit after 104-point loss

By Nick Abramo on September 10, 2019

According to Hilo AD Kurt Kawachi, the BIIF athletic directors met Tuesday and decided to amend the league’s mercy rule. After a 35-point differential in a game, running time will be instituted even if it occurs in the first half. “In general, there is some imbalance in the BIIF this year,” he said. Nobody can say for sure if Waiakea will bounce back and give everything it has on the field after Saturday’s 104-0 loss to Hilo. But if practice, […]

6 former Moanalua cheerleaders now on the college scene

By Nick Abramo on September 10, 2019

Blossom Caballero‘s cheerleading squad had a busy time last week, cheering for three of the Moanalua volleyball team’s matches and one of the football team’s games in Las Vegas. Na Menehune cheerleaders are among the state’s best when it comes to the state tournament. They’ll be going for the medium division state title later this year. They also have three state crowns in the last four years (2015 large, 2016 medium, 2018 large), and the year they didn’t take states […]

Q&A: Hilo coach Kaeo Drummondo defends record win over Waiakea

By Paul Honda on September 10, 2019

What can be said after a 104-0 football game? When Hilo routed Waiakea by that score on Saturday afternoon, there was very little that could be said. The Vikings, dominant team in BIIF Division I for years, turned a plethora of turnovers into instant or near-instant touchdowns. Some of the takeaways gave Hilo the ball in the red zone. The Vikings led 83-0 by halftime. Only then was the mercy-rule running clock implemented. Like most leagues, the BIIF has gone […]
