Smith, Nedd power OIA over ILH in 97-96 thriller

By Paul Honda on March 3, 2018

It’s all fun and games until a little fire gets going, and that’s partly how the OIA squad, led by Tolu Smith, edged the ILH team 97-96 on Saturday night in the fifth annual Geremy Robinson Senior Classic at Blaisdell Center. Smith, Kahuku’s superlative 6-foot-10 center, finished with 24 points and 12 rebounds despite a minor knee injury in the first half. Down 97-94, the ILH squad had two shots from the arc in the final seconds, but missed. One […]

Battery powers Mid-Pacific over Punahou

By Christian Shimabuku on March 3, 2018

No. 3 Mid-Pacific was powered by its battery in a 5-0 win over a No. 5 Punahou at Ala Wai field on Saturday, a game in which the Owls (2-0) benefited from both experience and youth. Michael China was masterful against the Buffanblu (1-1), tossing a four-hit shutout in just 73 pitches while striking out two and walking none. The senior pitched behind a stout defense that had no errors and made each play look routine. “Just throwing strikes, trusting […]

1964 prep football all-star teams

By Jerry Campany on March 3, 2018

Only one player was a unanimous selection to the Honolulu Advertiser 1964 All-State football team. Punanhou’s Charley Wedemeyer was the consensus player of the year in both newspapers. Buffanblu teammates Doug Jacobsen and Wayne Sterling were also first-team selections by both newspapers. The Advertiser had two more Buffanblu players on its first team — tackle Ed Pickering and guard Robert Klein. The Star-Bulletin added Punahou center Fred Hemmings. McKinley’s Allen Takamori was the other back to make the first team in […]

Mililani’s golden arms: 1 run in 14 innings

By Paul Honda on March 2, 2018

Mark Hirayama is a worthy candidate in the “Stay Calm” category of baseball. The longtime Mililani coach has seen plenty of storms and waves over the years, which is why a 1-0 loss to No. 8 Campbell on Wednesday didn’t have any affect on his outlook. The seventh-ranked Trojans seemed to feed off their coach on Friday as three pitchers combined on a one-hitter as they blanked Pearl City 6-0. It’s just life in the rugged Oahu Interscholastic Association West, […]

Mililani to play St. John Bosco in California

By Nick Abramo on March 2, 2018

Mililani will visit St. John Bosco for a football game against the Braves in Bellflower, Calif., on Aug. 31. This will be the third trip in the last four seasons for the Trojans. They defeated Clayton Valley Charter 49-30 in Concord, Calif., last season. In 2015, they visited Liberty in Las Vegas and lost 76-53. Those are the only two times Mililani has played an opponent from the mainland. A year ago, the Trojans went 10-2, losing to Kahuku 35-31 […]

1982 prep football all-star teams

By Jerry Campany on March 1, 2018

Kahuku running back Lakei Heimuli and Waianae defensive back Derrick Mahaulu were the top offensive and defensive players as chosen by the Honolulu Advertiser in 1982. The year is best remembered, through, for Pac-Five winning the first of its two Prep Bowls under Don Botelho. Running back Joe Onosai, quarterback Tino Sellitto and Russell Borden, the only offensive lineman selected to the All-State first team shorter than 6 feet, were all All-State picks on offense. Wolfpack defensive lineman Joey Fleming, […]

The induction […]
