St. Francis-Leilehua: What a game

By Brian McInnis on August 6, 2017

Here’s hoping the eventual sequel to St. Francis-Leilehua will come close to being as good as the original. That is a tough ask. Saturday night’s game was starved of offense for long stretches and play was downright sloppy at times, but in terms of a heart-pounding finish, you couldn’t have asked for more. Division II St. Francis, still a newcomer to the Oahu football scene, clawed into position for an improbable road upset of an OIA Division I mainstay, marching […]

Waianae learns lessons in loss to No. 1 Saint Louis

By Paul Honda on August 6, 2017

They’re not clones by any means, but the Waianae Seariders aren’t a whole lot different from the Farrington Governors at this point. Both teams, ranked in the Star-Advertiser top 10, are relatively young. Each has a massive number of first-year starters. Farrington lost to an ILH powerhouse, Kamehameha, 24 hours before Waianae took on ILH and state defending champion Saint Louis. Waianae, though, does have more returnees with experience. There just wasn’t much the Seariders could do when Saint Louis’ […]

By Nick Abramo on August 6, 2017

Oahu football fans got a glimpse of reigning Division II state football champion Lahainaluna on Saturday night in Pearl City. It was a sloppy start for the visiting Lunas, but they finally got down to business to score a 20-7 victory over the host Chargers. The first half was evenly played with Lahainaluna outgaining Pearl City 78-52 but finding itself down by a point, 7-6, at the halftime break. In the final tally, the Lunas outgained the Chargers 212-145 and […]

Injury dampens Damien’s opening win

By Billy Hull on August 5, 2017

Damien coach Eddie Klaneski said the Monarchs suited up 32 players for Saturday’s 42-7 season-opening win against Castle in Kaneohe. That forced many to play both ways, but the one area Klaneski said the Monarchs were OK at was in the trenches. “We only had one or two guys play both ways (on the line),” Klaneski said. That depth will be tested early as the Monarchs lost starting center Magnus Fonoti-Faumuina to a knee injury in the third quarter. Fonoti-Faumuina, […]
