By Nick Abramo on August 5, 2015

Mililani and Saint Louis tried to get a real game in the works for this football season, but a scrimmage is the best they could do. It will be Saturday at 7 p.m. at the Trojans’ John Kauinana Stadium. There’s an Oahu Interscholastic Association rule stating that all league football teams can only play one regular-season, nonleague game.

Saint Louis’ starting QBs since statehood

By Nick Abramo on August 5, 2015

Hawaii Prep World sports news archaeologist Jerry Campany went on a mission to get a complete list of Saint Louis starting quarterbacks since statehood. And he succeeded, with one minor exception. There is a question mark for 1965, but luckily we live in the interactive world of interwebbiness and someone out there has the answer and could relay it to us sometime today.

Hao says Tagovailoa is best of Passas’ bunch

By Nick Abramo on August 2, 2015

The Honolulu Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World sportswriters were at least a little surprised early last season when Saint Louis coach Cal Lee told one of them that sophomore Tua Tagovailoa was named the starting quarterback to replace incumbent senior starter Ryder Kuhns. Kuhns put up fine numbers (2,016 yards and 25 touchdowns passing) as a junior and was off to a fast start as a senior. In came Tagovailoa, the dual runnning and passing threat, and he went on […]

By Nick Abramo on July 30, 2015

As is the case in recent years, large numbers of football players have transferred from one Hawaii high school to another this summer, and we are just scratching the surface of finding out who is where now. Hawaii Prep World learned within the last week that two top players from the Neighbor Islands — Luca Vartic and Tristan Nichols — are now playing for Saint Louis.

Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is about to start his junior season as Saint Louis’ starter, and fans can get an early look Thursday at 5:30 p.m. when the Crusaders visit Kapolei for a scrimmage. But he will not be the only Tagovailoa on the field. His brother, Taulia Tagovailoa, is a freshman quarterback for the Hurricanes, and their father, Galu Tagovailoa, is a Kapolei assistant. “I don’t think Taulia’s a starter,” Tua told Hawaii Prep World at Saint Louis’ practice on […]
