By Paul Honda on October 21, 2017

Cal Lee was in good spirits after Saint Louis’ 38-2 win over Kamehameha on Saturday night at Aloha Stadium. Facing elimination from ILH title contention and state-tourney qualification, Kamehameha was resilient in the trenches.

By Christian Shimabuku on October 21, 2017

Saint Louis’ defense was effective again on Saturday night, with the only points it squandered being a safety by the offense. Backup quarterback Maika Bonner was sacked in the end zone, breaking up a shutout for the Crusaders.

Saint Louis junior defensive lineman Faatui Tuitele‘s status for Saturday’s Interscholastic League of Honolulu football Division I second-round championship game is unknown. “Tui is a game-day decision,” coach Cal Lee said Thursday. “He hurt his elbow in practice and did not play last week. He will play next week for sure.” Next week, the Crusaders (7-0) — the league’s first-round champion — will only be playing if they lose Saturday’s game against Kamehameha (4-4). If they win, they are overall […]
