Radford still adjusting to Division I

By Christian Shimabuku on September 3, 2016

The fine line between Division I and Division II can be measured in wins and losses for the Radford football team. Last year’s team went a perfect 13-0 en route to an HHSAA Division II state championship. It was the school’s only state championship in the divisional format. It also won the Oahu Prep Bowl in 1981. This year’s team is currently 0-4 and 0-3 in OIA play and has lost by an average of 36 points per game. “It’s […]

It’s going to be a dogfight in ILH D-II

By Billy Hull on September 2, 2016

For a half, Damien looked like the clear-cut, no doubt favorite to repeat as the ILH Division II champs. The Monarchs held a 21-0 lead and weren’t giving up anything on defense to St. Francis at Aloha Stadium on Friday night. Things started to turn in the third quarter when the two teams combined for no yards in the first 16 plays of the second half. Then came the comeback attempt. A 72-yard interception return for a touchdown by Destin […]

By Nick Abramo on September 2, 2016

There are advantages to sitting in the Kahuku press box watching the JV game waiting for the varsity game against Campbell to start. You can ask the announcer and spotter how the Kahuku vs. Bishop Gorman ticket sales went a few weeks. What they said was not a surprise. “Two-thousand tickets gone in one hour.” That fact was confirmed a few minutes later by Red Raiders athletic director Gillian Yamagata. Kahuku (3-0, 3-0 OIA Blue), the defending Division I state […]


Shannon gave Kamehameha a wildcat spark

By Nick Abramo on September 2, 2016

Kamehameha’s first foray into Interscholastic League of Honolulu football with Abu Ma‘afala was not a successful one. The Warriors lost 56-14 and were beaten by, seemingly, a better team. But there was a time in the first quarter when Kamehameha had Punahou confused. It was when the Warriors, trailing 14-0, went to the wildcat offense and Kanoa Shannon took the snaps. Shannon hit the holes hard and fast and wiggled his way for extra yardage. A 40-yard gain was the […]
