ILH keeping close eye on hits

By Paul Honda on September 18, 2013

Officially, it wasn’t a meeting. Still, Punahou coach Kale Ane was willing to discuss the issue with the Interscholastic League of Honolulu before and after his team’s game with Kamehameha over the weekend. “It was a very informal phone conversation with the football coordinator (Georges Gilbert),” Ane said on Tuesday. “It was more talking about the game so we’re aware of things.” Clearly, in a new world of rule changes to protect players, the word is safety, and that word […]

This may seem manic or chaotic or just wishy-washy, but here goes. I voted Kamehameha No. 1 on my ballot for the Star-Advertiser Prep Football Top 10 this week.

By Paul Honda on September 10, 2013

For fans who weren’t at Aloha Stadium on Friday when No. 3 Saint Louis defeated Pac-Five 73-6, it may seem like some piling on was going on.

I’ll have updates here for the rest of the day and night. Kamehameha and ‘Iolani to follow. 5:12 p.m. Crusaders score on their second play from scrimmage, a 70-yard bomb from Ryder Kuhns to Devan Stubblefield down the left side. Wolfpack had a couple of […]
