The quarterback position at Damien looks to be in pretty good shape for the next two years. Although sophomore Marcus Faufata-Pedrina couldn’t lead Damien to a first-round victory over Konawaena in the First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Football State Championships on Saturday, the Monarchs quarterback had a record-setting night against the Wildcats. Faufata-Pedrina completed 15 of 30 passes for a school-record 296 yards and three touchdowns in a 42-33 loss in the Monarchs’ first state tournament appearance since 2003. The 296 passing […]

Freshman QB Dillon Gabriel was lost with a broken collarbone and the Trojans have called up freshman Cy Kuboyama-Hayashi, who coach Rod York said will start tonight. However, reigning Honolulu Star-Advertiser all-state offensive […]
