Trojans’ Malepeai wishes finalists ‘the best’

By Nick Abramo on November 17, 2015

Mililani’s Vavae Malepeai etched his name into the Hawaii high school history books with his rushing exploits for the Trojans the past three falls. Malepeai, who broke Joe Igber of ‘Iolani’s all-time rushing record in last week’s Division I state semifinal loss to Saint Louis (4,549 to 4,428), has lots of friends and relatives on both teams in the No. 2 Kahuku (12-0) vs. top-ranked Crusaders (9-1) championship game Friday at 7:30 p.m. at Aloha Stadium. Malepeai is not rooting […]

By Hawaii Prep World on November 16, 2015

Kahuku enters Friday night’s Division I title game in the First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Football State Championships as the No. 1 overall seed with a perfect 12-0 record. Saint Louis enters the game as the No. 2 seed with one loss this year. Yet, according to the latest Honolulu Star-Advertiser Top 10 football rankings released Monday, the Crusaders are the clear favorite. Saint Louis received 13 of 14 first-place votes in the final poll before the season ends this week. Kahuku, […]

Saint Louis jumps to No. 36 in national poll

By Nick Abramo on November 16, 2015

Saint Louis rose 69 spots to No. 36 in the latest MaxPreps national computer rankings released Sunday. The Crusaders (9-1) are coming off a 56-30 victory over Mililani in the Division I state semifinals. They’ll play Kahuku (12-0), which dropped 54 spots nationally after last weekend’s 13-0 win over Waianae in the other D-I semifinal, on Friday in the state title game at Aloha Stadium. In addition, Saint Louis is ranked No. 8 in the Pacific region by USA Today. […]

Uemoto, Ewing building a juggernaut

By Paul Honda on November 15, 2015

They almost pulled it out, this unsung team from Konawaena. Coming within a 2-point conversion of tying the game in the fourth quarter, the Wildcats’ 48-46 loss to No. 2 seed Radford is probably the most entertaining game I’ve seen this season. (Note: I was not at the crazy 51-45 overtime game between Punahou and Saint Louis in the ILH’s first round.) Konawaena may have played its best game of the year and still fell a few PATs short. They […]

Big ‘O’ carries Radford to finals

By Paul Honda on November 15, 2015

With Radford’s roller-coaster 48-46 win over a vastly underrated Konawaena squad on Saturday night, there’s is one final step for the unbeaten Rams (12-0) and their dream of a state championship. Kapaa, which blanked a young Lahainaluna team 24-0, shares that same dream. Maybe shares isn’t the right word. Sharing anything but good sportsmanship is all Radford and Kapaa will be doing on Friday night in the Division II title game of the First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Football State Championships. “I’m […]

State football tickets on sale Monday

By Jerry Campany on November 14, 2015

Fans who are expecting to pick up both adult and youth/student tickets for the First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Football State Championships at First Hawaiian Bank will have to adjust their plans a bit. Only adult tickets are being sold at FHB. Student tickets are available at schools or the stadium. “It was too hard for them to sell two different denominations,” HHSAA Executive Director Chris Chun said. “The bank only sells the adult tickets. The student tickets we actually gave the […]
