Q&A: Punahou’s Kale Ane talks Mililani showdown
By Paul Honda on September 8, 2018It’s not Saint Louis-Kahuku, but Mililani-Punahou is as potent a game as it gets otherwise. Saturday’s showdown between the visiting Buffanblu and the host Trojans at John Kauinana Stadium promises to have all the combustible elements necessary for an epic, high-scoring, pinball-machine battle. Which, naturally, means that fans might end up with the opposite. Both defenses are equipped with athletic, smart and experienced returnees. Punahou showed its ground attack in a 40-14 win at Farrington. Mililani, back home after a […]

No. 4 Campbell hangs on to stay undefeated
By Nick Abramo on September 8, 2018Before the game, almost everyone talking about the Kamehameha at Campbell football contest Friday night was expecting an entertaining showdown. Honolulu Star-Advertiser Top 10 voters, by virtue of their positioning skills, had it just right: No. 4 Campbell and No. 6 Kamehameha. And it went right down to the nitty-gritty wire, with the Sabers holding on for a 26-22 victory in Ewa Beach. It truly could have gone either way. The Sabers (4-0, 1-0 OIA Open) led 7-0 early, but […]
No. 10 Damien survives with wild finish
By Jason Kaneshiro on September 8, 2018The buzz surrounding the frantic finish to Damien’s comeback win against Waipahu on Friday was just starting to settle when Eddie Klaneski’s focused to the week ahead rather than the just completed victory. “I hope we don’t have too many injuries that hurt us the rest of the way, because we have our nemesis in ‘Iolani coming up this week,” Klaneski said, moments after the Monarchs pulled out a 13–10 victory over the host Marauders in Friday’s OIA-ILH Division I […]
8 takeaways push Na Menehune into first place
By Jeremy Nitta on September 8, 2018Forcing a turnover is an exciting moment for a defense. Often, coaches will point to takeaways as key moments or turning points in ball games. In Moanalua’s 42-7 rout over visiting Kailua on Friday, those moments came early and often. “Our defensive backs coach told us that when the quarterback throws the ball, we’re supposed to see the ball and we’re supposed to take it,” defensive back Trequan Henderson said. “Tonight, there were opportunities to be made.” Henderson had two […]
Wilson a master of the route tree for Crusaders
By Paul Honda on September 8, 2018There is so much talent and depth in the Saint Louis receiving corps. It’s no lie, any of the four starters, or even reserves, can step up with a 100-yard game. That’s the beauty of a balanced passing attack with a superior offensive line and a quarterback like Jayden de Laura. For Roman Wilson, coming back from injury means having an opportunity to contribute as a junior as Saint Louis goes after a third straight state championship. The 5-foot-11, 165-pound […]
6 first-half sacks power Saint Louis over Kahuku, 30-14
By Paul Honda on September 7, 2018There are no easy wins over a Goliath like Kahuku. Not even for mighty Saint Louis. Yet, the Crusaders’ vaunted defense was stellar in a 30-14 win on Friday night in a clash between the state’s top two football teams. Saint Louis’ front seven wouldn’t let the Red Raiders move the ball. Kahuku had minus-22 rushing yards in the first half, including six Saint Louis sacks. Linebackers Nick Herbig (three), Jordan Botelho (two) and Kila Kamakawiwo‘ole (one) were active. So […]
