By Nick Abramo on September 8, 2018

Before the game, almost everyone talking about the Kamehameha at Campbell football contest Friday night was expecting an entertaining showdown. Honolulu Star-Advertiser Top 10 voters, by virtue of their positioning skills, had it just right: No. 4 Campbell and No. 6 Kamehameha. And it went right down to the nitty-gritty wire, with the Sabers holding on for a 26-22 victory in Ewa Beach. It truly could have gone either way.

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 8, 2018

The buzz surrounding the frantic finish to Damien’s comeback win against Waipahu on Friday was just starting to settle when Eddie Klaneski’s focused to the week ahead rather than the just completed victory. “I hope we don’t have too many injuries that hurt us the rest of the way, because we have our nemesis in ‘Iolani coming up this week,” Klaneski said, moments after the Monarchs pulled out a 13–10 victory over the host Marauders in Friday’s OIA-ILH Division I […]

By Paul Honda on September 8, 2018

There is so much talent and depth in the Saint Louis receiving corps. It’s no lie, any of the four starters, or even reserves, can step up with a 100-yard game. That’s the beauty of a balanced passing attack with a superior offensive line and a quarterback like Jayden de Laura.
