Benefit for high school athletes a hit If you timed it right, you didn’t need to wait hours to get a $1 sirloin steak plate at L&L Hawaiian Barbeque today. The Keeaumoku location, in Wal-Mart, teamed up with Keith Amemiya and the Hawaii High School Athletic Association to help high school athletes today. At 11 a.m., hundreds of hungry customers lined up outside the eatery. The line extended along the parking lot and out into the sun on Keeaumoku Street. […]

Today might seem to be the last quiet day of the week in prep sports. OIA volleyball begins tonight while the Ann Kang Invitational, which brings together some of the top girls volleyball teams from California and Hawaii, doesn’t start until tomorrow. Football? No games, of course, until Friday, when the Oahu Interscholastic Association opens its regular season. Then there’s the big showdown on Saturday between defending state champ Punahou and defending OIA Red winner Kahuku. But really, today won’t […]

By Paul Honda The third time was the charm for Jarrett Arakawa and ‘Iolani’s potent offense. Stifled by Kaiser’s defense for the first two series, Arakawa threw the first of his four touchdown passes — all before halftime — as the Raiders scored 30 second-quarter points en route to a 30-7 win over Kaiser at Aloha Stadium in the Father Bray Classic. Three of the scoring plays went to Kevin Barayuga, who finished with eight receptions for 102 yards. Arakawa […]

Crusaders roll over Waianae Jeremy Higgins fired six touchdown passes as No. 1-ranked Saint Louis outlasted No. 10 Waianae 48-35 at Raymond Torii Field. Higgins, a senior, finished with 391 passing yards (25-for-29) with no interceptions, and was a bit surprised by the numbers. “No way, six touchdowns? I wasn’t paying attention to that,” he said. “I was in awe of how fast Fukes (Jordan Fukumoto) was. He’s been working hard all offseason.” Fukumoto had two of those touchdown tosses. […]

Ryan Ho ran for three touchdowns and 161 yards and Blaise Cuban hauled in two TD receptions as the Warriors thrashed the visiting Vikings.

Garrett Paredes had scoring runs of 5 and 15 yards and Knights quarterback Jaymason Lee connected with Shaydon Kehano for two scores from 20 and 45 yards as Castle blitzed host Pearl City.

Govs open with win Fifth-ranked Farrington opened its season with a 20-14 victory at Campbell. The Governors pressured Campbell quarterback Christian Carlos all night, sacking him three times in the first half and preventing the Sabers’ potent run-and-shoot attack from getting off the ground for most of the evening. Farrington’s West Coast offense chewed up the clock and prevented the Sabers from getting into an offensive flow. And aside from a first-half interception, the Govs didn’t turn over the ball. […]

A lot of the hype surrounding second-ranked Leilehua focuses on quarterback Andrew Manley, and rightfully so. But the real heroes in the Mules’ season opener against Radford were the 11 guys on the other side of the ball. Zach Coffin scooped up a fumble on one of Leilehua’s four sacks and returned it for a touchdown to help the Mules hold off Radford 23-20 in the Spirit of Freedom Bowl last night at Hugh Yoshida Stadium. Rams running back Phil […]
