HAWAII GROWN: Milton returns for UCF’s 21st win in a row

By Billy Hull on November 1, 2018

After sitting out a game with an undisclosed injury, Central Florida quarterback McKenzie Milton returned to action Thursday night and led the Knights to their NCAA-best 21st consecutive win. Milton, a 2016 Mililani alumnus, finished 17-for-33 for 312 yards and three touchdowns and added a 1-yard TD run in a 52-40 win over Temple in a game broadcast by ESPN. He was considered day-to-day with an injury leading up to kickoff. “We’re a battle-tested team,” Milton said in an interview […]

Mililani LB Muasau selected to Polynesian Bowl

By Billy Hull on November 1, 2018

Mililani senior Darius Muasau has been selected a Polynesian Bowl All Star. The 6-foot-1, 225-pound linebacker, who has committed to the University of Hawaii, is the second Trojan selected to the 2019 high school football all-star game, joining quarterback Dillon Gabriel. Muasau has anchored a Trojans defense that is allowing just 15.1 points per game against Hawaii opponents overall and only 8.4 points per game against seven OIA opponents.

CLOSING THE BOOK: Punahou Buffanblu

By Jerry Campany on November 1, 2018

The new Open Division was supposed to bring teams like the Punahou Buffanblu back to the pack in the standings, but it didn’t quite work out that way. The Buffanblu finished 7-3 with two of their losses coming to ILH rival Saint Louis and the numbers suggest that the program was worlds better than the previous year despite what was supposed to be a tougher schedule. Punahou averaged 35.4 points per game in 2018, a jump of eight points over […]

Crusaders LB Botelho is a go for state tourney

By Paul Honda on October 31, 2018

After a few days of concern, Saint Louis has learned that linebacker Jordan Botelho is eligible to play in the upcoming First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Football State Championships. A source in the football program confirmed the news on Wednesday afternoon. Botelho drew two unsportsmanlike conduct infractions during the Interscholastic League of Honolulu Open Division championship game on Saturday and was disqualified from the game in the second quarter. The Crusaders weren’t certain if HHSAA rules would permit the playmaking defensive stopper […]

Pupule ballot: The case for Waipahu at No. 7 (or No. 8)

By Paul Honda on October 31, 2018

The rankings are out. I haven’t looked. I’m already mind-blown by the final girls volleyball Top 10 of the season. I’ll just offer my football ballot and if you readers disagree, fantastic. If not, please counter with your Top 10 because, as you know, all this has the sustenance of whipped cream. Sometimes, all the fun, too, if we can discuss and disagree. OK, I’ll include the new Top 10 rankings in these summaries. (* Also included is a post-proofed-by-my-editor […]

CLOSING THE BOOK: Castle Knights

By Jerry Campany on October 30, 2018

John Hao‘s second season with the Castle Knights will be remembered for a long time despite an overall losing record of 5-7. Castle improved its win total in Hao’s secong go-round, but that shouldn’t be so surprising as every Castle coach since Al Miyamoto in 1953 turned out a better product in his season season than his first. Castle’s resurgence came on offense, where the Knights scored 21.6 points per game to match Nelson Maeda‘s last crew two years ago […]

Foot notes: HBA sweeps in Division II cross country

By Stan Lee on October 30, 2018

Hawaii Baptist’s first state title in girls cross country came in dominating fashion. The Eagles placed four girls in the top 10 to claim the Division II title at Saturday’s Honolulu Marathon/HHSAA State Championships at Central Oahu Regional Park. Their win ended Seabury Hall’s streak — the Spartans had won every team title since a DII classification was added in 2012. Only one race is held per gender at the state meet. Team scores in Division I and II are […]
