By Paul Honda on August 10, 2019

The two veterans of Kahuku’s bulldozing offense line see a lot of work ahead. Moments after a 21-13 win over No. 6 Kamehameha, right tackle Micah Soliai-Howlett and right guard Marcus Lombard were brutally frank with their assessment as a unit in the trenches. “D-minus,” said Soliai-Howlett. “We could have scored on every drive if we didn’t have simple mistakes. We should have double the score we had.” “I say D-minus, too,” Lombard added. “It was terrible.” Kahuku entered the […]

By Brian McInnis on August 10, 2019

Aiea, which trailed 19-7 at halftime, scored 27 […]

By Billy Hull on August 10, 2019

Who knows how many times Mason Yoshino has caught a pass from his younger brother, Easton. However many there have been, none can compare to the moment Friday night at Kaiser Stadium.
