CLOSING THE BOOK: Kailua Surfriders

By Jerry Campany on October 18, 2018

After turning an 0-7 team around in his second year, Kailua coach Joseph Wong has another reclamation project in the works. The Kailua Surfriders were the state’s hard-luck team in 2018, hanging around in plenty of games but getting off to an 0-5 start before rebounding. Scoring points was a big problem, as the Surfriders averaged only 11.7 to drop from their 18.4 the previous year. That’s the lowest total since Wong’s winless 2014 season. The defense was much better […]

Nothing will come easy for Kailua this season

By Christian Shimabuku on October 6, 2018

After Kailua intercepted Na Alii quarterback Kayson Castillo on its own 1-yard line with eight seconds left, the coast was clear for the Surfriders to pick up their second win of the season on Friday night at Alex Kane Stadium. Until it wasn’t. On the very next play, the Surfriders fumbled on a quarterback sneak, giving Aiea the ball back at the Kailua 5 with three seconds left. Kailua needed one final stand from its defense, and after Castillo’s pass […]

Punivai prolific again as Castle downs Kailua

By Brian McInnis on September 22, 2018

Things got off to an inauspicious start for Castle in its anticipated Windward rivalry matchup with Kailua. First, there were supposed to be Golden Knights paratroopers from the National Guard timed to land with the playing of the national anthem. The idea was, they’d present the game ball. A packed crowd waited anxiously for several minutes pregame … only to have it called off due to uncooperative winds in Kaneohe. Once things got going, the Knights were then tackled for […]

By Brian McInnis on September 21, 2018

CASTLE 38, KAILUA 21, FINAL ———- 10:06: Wow. Third rushing touchdown of the night for Senituli Punivai … and 233 yards rushing. He’s put this thing to bed. That’s second all-time for Castle. 10:04: Castle’s running out the clock on the ground. 10:01: Annnnd … Kailua muffs another one. Sky kick that’s tough to handle is fumbled and Castle recovers at the Kailua 25. Not looking good for the Surfriders. 9:59: Punivai makes Kailua pay with a 15-yard pinball run […]
