Quintero provides inspiration for Leilehua

By Jason Kaneshiro on October 12, 2013

Even while sitting in a wheelchair, Bryan Quintero might have been trying to devise a way onto the field Friday night. Quintero, a Leilehua senior, recently had surgery to insert a metal rod in his lower leg and returned to the sideline for the Mules’ OIA Red playoff game against Moanalua. He watched the proceedings wearing his jersey and shoulder pads as Leilehua rolled to a 54-17 win to advance to the quarterfinals. “I think he was trying to wheel […]

Kapolei can catch it

By Jerry Campany on October 12, 2013

Kapolei can run the ball, that is no secret. But heading into its playoff game against Farrington, it showed it can throw it a little bit, too. Quarterback Aizon Kahana passed for 203 yards in the Hurricanes’ 42-27 win over Kailua in the first round of the OIA playoffs on Friday, just his second game with more than 200 yards passing this season.

By Paul Honda on October 11, 2013

First Quarter 5:54 – The Tigers score on their second series, a 48-yard bomb from Mathias Tuitele-Iafeta to Tyrell Tuiasosopo. Two surprises here. One, Waipahu had solo coverage on Tuiasosopo, one of the best WR talents in the state. Two, MTI threw it a long, high ways. His arm strength is way beyond what I expected. I saw him throw a play-action lob for a TD recently, but this long stuff is a surprise. PAT kick was blocked. Tigers 6, […]
