Update: Kalani 60, Anuenue 6, final

By Paul Honda on September 28, 2013

5:25 p.m. Sunny, windy afternoon in Hawaii Kai. Noah Brum’s first pass of the day is a 25-yard touchdown pass to Trevor Yamashita. After another Anuenue fumble, Brum finds Brandon Roberts on a post route for a touchdown pass on fourth down. Falcons lead 14-0 with 9 minutes to go in the first quarter. 5:31 p.m. Brum tosses his third touchdown pass, a 6-yard strike in the back of the end zone to Blaise Manabe. Kalani 21, Anuenue 0, 4:51, […]

Ugly win? Waianae will take it

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 28, 2013

Waianae coach Daniel Matsumoto called it an “ugly” win. But at this point in the season, aesthetics don’t mean much. “We’ll take anything,” Matsumoto said with relief after the Seariders held off Kapolei in a 35-27 win Friday night at Raymond Torii Stadium. Waianae finished the regular season at 4-2 in the OIA Red West, good for second in the conference with Campbell and Kapolei (both 3-2) right behind. Waianae has a bye next week, and whether the Seariders have […]

Blowout Friday is in the books

By Billy Hull on September 27, 2013

An 11-game slate of high school football games on Oahu delivered very little suspense on Friday night. In fact, six of the 11 games were decided by more than 30 points as we saw a wide gap between the top and bottom teams in both the OIA and ILH. Waianae’s 35-27 win over Kapolei was the only game decided by single digits. Kaiser dropped at least 70 on a team for the second time in 14 days, destroying Roosevelt 71-0 […]

Update: Moanalua 39, Castle 14, final

By Paul Honda on September 27, 2013

6:55 p.m. Picture-perfect weather here at Moanalua. Slight breezes, no ominous clouds. Just clear, crystalline blue sky above and a short wait until Castle and Moanalua begin their varsity game. The JV game is in the fourth quarter with Moanalua ahead 21-0. Castle has a hearty squad of 25 players. The varsity game could take some time since both teams love the four-wide passing game. I say it’s a 3-hour, 10-minute contest. After all, Moanalua’s Micah Kaneshiro tossed the ball […]

No. 1 Punahou plays ‘Iolani at right time

By Billy Hull on September 27, 2013

Not that No. 1 Punahou needs help or anything, but the Buffanblu are getting to play ‘Iolani at the right time on Saturday. The unranked Raiders (4-3, 2-2 ILH) will likely be without the services of sophomore running back Jordan Ross as they try to snap a three-game losing streak to the visiting Buffanblu (5-0, 3-0). Ross, who has rushed for 658 yards and 10 touchdowns in seven games, injured his left ankle in the second quarter of a 19-3 […]

Golden Hawks still in hunt

By Brian McInnis on September 27, 2013

As of this moment, the Oahu Interscholastic Association White Division playoff picture is in pretty sharp focus. There’s still time for things to get seriously blurry, however. Kaiser (5-0), Radford (5-1), Pearl City (4-1) and Kalani (4-2) have the White’s four postseason berths if things ended today. Should Pearl City (at Nanakuli), Kaiser (vs. Roosevelt) and Kalani (vs. Anuenue) all win this weekend, that would solidify the situation further. Radford has a bye. But Nanakuli (2-3) and Kalaheo (2-3) might […]

Who’s going to be the next Yuuya?

By Paul Honda on September 27, 2013

Who will be this year’s Yuuya Kato? Can’t remember him? Let’s refresh, shall we? In the fall of 2012, ‘Iolani lost running back Kody Mento to injury midway through the season. Enter Kato, who had 22 carries in the first five games for 149 yards and one touchdown. After that, starting against Kamehameha on Sept. 20, he averaged 18 attempts per game, cracking the century mark in five of the Raiders’ last seven games. For the year, he rushed for […]

Lanai interested in 8-man football?

By Paul Honda on September 27, 2013

There’s a buzz in the Lanai community about 8-man football, but it’s not coming from the high school. The community is starting with a pass league team this fall, but Lanai High School assistant athletic director Merill Taguchi said he hasn’t heard anything about an 8-man team yet. Unlike other programs statewide that have struggled to field 11-man teams — Kohala and Ka‘u folded teams this year, and Anuenue and Roosevelt have forfeited at least once — the 8-man game […]
