By Nick Abramo on April 12, 2018

Kaimuki defensive lineman Evangelist “Sama” Pa‘ama announced his commitment to the University of Washington on Sunday, giving the Huskies a Division II recruit from Hawaii for the second straight recruiting class. Pa‘ama made his decision based on his successful recruiting trip there. Prior to that, he had his heart set on Southern California. Aside from Washington and USC, seven other schools have offered a scholarship to the 6-foot-5, 330-pound Pa‘ama — Arizona, Arizona State, Hawaii, Nebraska, Oregon, Utah and Virginia. […]

Raiders keep hope alive for regular season

By Paul Honda on April 11, 2018

It’s going to take a miracle, maybe, for anyone to catch the high-flying Mid-Pacific Owls.

The Raiders dominated St. Francis 12-2 in six innings on Wednesday and is still mathematically in the running with a 9-3-1 record. ‘Iolani needs MPI to lose its last two regular-season games to have a shot at the top.

Domingo, Sales help Sabers walk off against Mules

By Paul Honda on April 10, 2018

’Tis the season of offensive forces throughout the leagues of softball. Pitching as a whole seems steady, but far from dominant. The cycle goes up and down, and coaches are hoping their underclassmen can rise to the challenge. Third-ranked Campbell got a memorable effort from sophomore Chloe Sales on Tuesday in a 6-5 comeback win over No. 2 Leilehua. It was quite the splash for the Sabers.

He can practice and hone his craft as a hitter morning, noon and night. And he does, given any opportunity. “He loves baseball,” longtime friend and teammate Micah Pi said. “I think of baseball, I think of Wyatt. I’m not even kidding.” Coach Dunn Muramaru recalls the times when Young would ask when […]
