Moanalua thrives on the edge

By Jason Kaneshiro on October 10, 2015

Moanalua coach Jason Cauley figured Leilehua’s defensive front might make it tough for the Na Menehune ground game between the tackles. So he devised other ways to give Michael Feliciano room to roam. Held to 27 rushing yards on 13 carries, Feliciano was quarterback Alakai Yuen’s top target in Moanalua’s 58-22 win at Leilehua on Friday in the first round of the OIA Division I playoffs. Feliciano caught 11 passes for 131 and two touchdowns in Moanalua’s first win over […]

Kailua’s gigantic step is not finished

By Nick Abramo on October 10, 2015

By now, Hawaii high school football fans know what a mammoth stride the Kailua football team has taken — from last place to a third seed in the Oahu Interscholastic Association playoffs to a 57-6 smashing of Waipahu in the first round on Friday night. But how big of a footprint the Surfriders (7-2) leave behind this year has not been determined. It was just a year ago when a solemn Kailua coach Joseph Wong was hard to find after home […]

Tagovailoa, Noah-Williams break records

By Jerry Campany on October 9, 2015

Earlier this season, Kapolei coach Darren Hernandez said his team had finally joined the modern era after years of relying on defense and a bruising running game. The Hurricanes still have that defense, not giving up more than seven points in a game since Sept. 5, but it is the passing attack that has evolved the most. It starts with quarterback Taulia Tagovialoa, of course, but the young freshman certainly has talent around him. Tagovailoa is the only Kapolei quarterback […]

LIVE BLOG: No. 2 Saint Louis 31, ‘Iolani 7, F

By Billy Hull on October 9, 2015

The No. 2-ranked Saint Louis Crusaders are on a collision course with No. 1 Punahou for a rematch of a double-overtime classic in the first meeting next week to determine whether the Buffanblu win the ILH or the Crusaders force a playoff game. First, the Crusaders have to get past an ‘Iolani team that didn’t back down in a 28-17 loss earlier this season. The Raiders also played the Buffanblu tough in a 35-23 loss last week. Can ‘Iolani play […]

LIVE BLOG: Kapolei 41, Castle 0, F

By Paul Honda on October 9, 2015

FIRST QUARTER Kapolei receives the opening kickoff, drives to the Castle 29 and stalls out. Castle then goes three and out. A lot of passing, not a lot of connections yet. Eight plays, 85 yards for Kapolei on its second series. After missing the targets earlier, Taulia Tagovailoa is on point with a 20-yard pass to Jaymin Sarono. Ty-Noah Williams is wide open deep for a 57-yard TD pass from Tagovailoa. PAT pass is easy enough from the holder to […]

LIVE BLOG: St. Francis 21, Damien 6, F

By Billy Hull on October 9, 2015

We knew when ‘Iolani jumped to Division I that there would be a new ILH Division II champion crowned for the first time since 2003. We didn’t know it might happen this quick. Damien, which is off to its first 5-0 start in school history, needs a win in either of its next two games to clinch the league title and automatic berth to the state tournament. The Monarchs won the first meeting against the Saints, 21-6, but St. Francis […]

The ILH House of Blues

By Paul Honda on October 9, 2015

Ranked No. 5 statewide. Elite defense. Stellar special teams. Explosive offense even with a third-string QB. The Kamehameha Warriors won’t be part of the state football tournament, not after last night’s 26-23 loss to No. 1 Punahou. Another year, another heartbreak for teams — pick a sport — from the shark tank of ILH athletics. Kamehameha won’t be the last team to sing the blues this fall. Soon enough, perhaps by next week, another ILH — and state championship — […]

Kamehameha just couldn’t hold a lead

By Billy Hull on October 9, 2015

The Kamehameha Warriors have scored more points than they have given up in league play and are ranked fifth in the state. Yet, eight days into the month of October, Kamehameha was eliminated from postseason play with a 1-4 ILH record. How is that even possible? That’s the reality of playing in a four-team league that boasts there of the five best teams in the state according to the Honolulu Star-Advertiser Top 10 rankings. Kamehameha was eliminated by Punahou on […]
