By Jerry Campany on August 16, 2013

Thursday night’s battle between Punahou and Mililani was waged on many fronts. One of the most important featured Punahou’s left tackle trying to contain Mililani defensive end Kelii Padello. It was very much a heavyweight title fight, so let’s treat it as such. In one corner, standing 6-foot-5 and weighing 310 pounds, Punahou junior Semisi Uluave. In the other corner, Mililani’s Padello (5-11, 200). Let’s get ready to rumble! Round 1 Padello hit the field for Punahou’s first offensive series […]

No. 2 Punahou leads No. 4 Mililani 17-7 at John Kauinana Stadium with 9:50 to go in the third quarter. Charles McDonald just drilled a field goal and Larry Tuileta has two touchdown passes, including one on fourth and 5. Having some tech problems. My adapter is really iffy on charging up my MacBook, has been a problem for several weeks now, just getting worse. I’m down to 1 percent battery. Heading to the Apple store tomorrow morning.

Football Tour: Pac-Five

By Paul Honda on August 14, 2013

Tour stop: Friday, Aug. 9, 2013 They’ve got fairly good numbers, just not a lot of experience. And that goes right to the focal point of the offense at Pac-Five, where Anthony Canencia is at the controls. Canencia is a gifted point guard who plays for University High. In fact, because of his track record — broken collarbone as a freshman, broke the other collarbone as a sophomore — Junior Rainbows basketball coach Walt Quitan is a bit nervous about […]

Nothing stays on TV for 25 years without a little star power, and OC 16 has had more than enough to keep it going. The cable station, which began as KBLE-17, will begin its 25th year of broadcasting high school sports on Thursday when Punahou visits Mililani. Nobody knows which names will be remembered 25 years from now, just as nobody knew that one of the most recognizable names from that first game was Aiea’s little quarterback. Current Leilehua coach […]
