Ikenaga shines in Moanalua’s 5-set war

By Nick Abramo on October 11, 2018

If 5-foot-5 outside hitters are too small to be high school volleyball superstars, then Tayli Ikenaga will have to grow some more. But she played like one all over the court for No. 10 Moanalua on Thursday night in a five-set OIA quarterfinal victory over Waianae. Ikenaga, a sophomore weighing 120 pounds, lit up the Mililani gym with 27 digs along with her 24 kills that were courtesy of setters Aaliyah Allagonez and Allexis Iramina. “I’m not 5-foot-8 like it […]

Patient Kamehameha sweeps ‘Iolani to close in on ILH title

By Paul Honda on October 11, 2018

So much depth. So much skill. So dominant. The Kamehameha Warriors are resilient, too. Five Warriors tallied at least five kills, led by Keonilei Akana’s 18, in a 26-24, 25-20, 25-16 sweep of No. 2 ‘Iolani on Thursday night. The win leaves the Warriors (12-0) with a 2-0 record in the ILH double-elimination tournament. ‘Iolani will square off with Punahou on Saturday. An ‘Iolani win seals at least second place in the tourney, and would earn the Raiders the league’s […]

Q&A: Pearl City coach Robin Kami

By Paul Honda on October 11, 2018

Now into his sixth year as head coach, Robin Kami has earned a reputation for efficiency. Pearl City has qualified for the post-season in each of his six seasons, including this fall. Entering their showdown with Kaimuki on Saturday, the Chargers have clinched third place and could create a big purple mess with a win. Pearl City is 5-1, and would be in a three-way tie with Kaimuki and Roosevelt with a victory over a talented Kaimuki squad that is […]

R&S Lab: Kapolei 2015-16 vs. Moanalua 2018

By Paul Honda on October 11, 2018

COMMENTARY BY PAUL HONDA This isn’t a post about June Jones. It isn’t about Taulia Tagovailoa. OK, maybe this is, but it’s also about a one-dimensional offense. A quarterback who is probably a world-class dart champion. And his catchers of spirals. His many catchers of spiraling pigskins. But first, June Jones. In 2016, the former head coach at Hawaii, a guru of the run-and-shoot offense who once could have easily won the election to become governor of Hawaii (my opinion) […]
