Basketball All-State on Sunday

By Paul Honda on March 29, 2014

There’s no way to make everyone happy when it comes to our Star-Advertiser All-State selections. That’s one thing I’ve learned over the years. This year is a little more interesting.

Technically, they can’t call it ILH vs. OIA, but that’s how the teams are comprised. There’s going to be a slam dunk competition, plus 3-point shootouts. Might be an interesting afternoon/evening of roundball here at Moanalua High School. The concession stand isn’t open yet, but I hear they’re working on brownie plates. Admission is $8 for adults, $5 for students. […]
