LIVE BLOG: Damien 6, Pac-Five 3

By Billy Hull on September 25, 2015

Damien and Pac-Five have been rivals for a long time but tended to play second-fiddle to ‘Iolani in the ILH Division II race. That has changed this season with the Raiders moving up to Division I as both the Wolfpack (4-0) and Monarchs (3-0) enter Friday night’s game undefeated and looking to take a big step toward claiming an ILH championship. Damien is 4-0 for the first time in school history and has won the last four against Pac-Five. The […]

When No. 1 meets No. 2

By Billy Hull on September 25, 2015

For the 12th time since the first Honolulu Star-Advertiser Football Top 10 poll in 2010, No. 1 and No. 2 will square off Friday night when the top-ranked Saint Louis Crusaders face No. 2 Punahou at Aloha Stadium. This is only the second time No. 1 vs. No. 2 features two ILH teams. The No. 1 team has won eight of the 11 meetings. Here’s a look at the previous 11 games: No. 2 Mililani 53, No. 1 Punahou 45 […]

For York and Wong, this is a Waimanalo affair

By Nick Abramo on September 25, 2015

Rod York and Joe Wong. Waimanalo boys. Former offensive linemen. Mutual respect. They talk highly of each other, and, in one sense, they’ll get to duke it out Saturday night in Kailua. They’ll be on the sidelines coaching their respective teams in an effort to beat the other with lots at stake in the Oahu Interscholastic Association Blue. On one side is York, who has taken Mililani from an annual outside contender to last year’s Division I state championship. On […]


Lee, Ane discuss Friday’s No. 1 vs. No. 2 contest

By Nick Abramo on September 25, 2015

The plan was simple: ask for quick thoughts from head coaches Cal Lee and Kale Ane so Hawaii Prep World can let people know what’s on their minds as No. 1 Saint Louis and No. 2 Punahou prepare to engage each other for the first time this season. If trophies were given for brevity, Lee (sorry Kale) would have added another to his case. Lee’s answer by text: “They (the Buffanblu) are undefeated. That says it all.” The answer was […]

Ane: Punahou has unique QB situation

By Nick Abramo on September 24, 2015

Before Punahou football head coach Kale Ane uttered the word “unique” to describe his quarterback situation on Wednesday during a phone interview, it was already evident among Hawaii high school fans. How many teams can boast not one, not two, but three highly capable quarterbacks? Ever in Hawaii? Doubtful. But Ane was also thinking ahead to a point in the near future, when some hard decisions might need to be made. Right now, it’s pretty simple. Senior Ephraim Tuliloa was […]

At a lower level, Kailua at top of food chain, too

By Nick Abramo on September 23, 2015

Kailua head coach Glenn Chong was looking for the right words to describe Moanalua, the team that had come into the Surfriders’ gym Wednesday night and left with a 21-16, 21-17 victory. “They’re at the top of the food chain,” he said. Yes indeed. Moanalua, the defending Oahu Interscholastic Association champion, is undefeated and one of the favorites to win the league again this year. But there is a lower level food chain, too, and Chong’s Surfriders are right there […]

Cabanting wants Moanalua girls to go for it

By Nick Abramo on September 23, 2015

Moanalua head coach Alan Cabanting is an upbeat guy, so it wasn’t surprising to see him smiling and talking positively about his Moanalua girls volleyball team on Wednesday night. Na Menehune — ranked No. 5 in the Honolulu Star-Advertiser’s Top 10 — had just dispatched Kailua 21-16, 21-17 and he was talking about how his team — missing three starters — had stayed focused and disciplined and how the team turns “great” when that happens. But just how great they are going to […]
