Update: Kamehameha 38, Saint Louis 17, final

By Paul Honda on August 30, 2013

9:13 p.m. This is turning out to be a defensive struggle. The game was scoreless until Christopher Quinn’s 20-yard field goal gave the No. 1 Crusaders a 3-0 lead early in the second quarter. Kamehameha drove patiently and scored on a screen pass from Noah Sua-Godinet to running back Brandon Kahookele for a 7-3 Warriors lead. Just a few plays later, however, Ryder Kuhns fired a bullet to wide receiver Drew Kobayashi on a simple sideline pattern, and Kobayashi went […]

Crusaders, Kamehameha might only get one shot

By Jerry Campany on August 29, 2013

For those old-timers who look forward to seeing Saint Louis and Kamehameha play each year, Friday might be their only chance. Because of the newly implemented playoffs in the ILH this could be the first time since 1968 that the Warriors and Crusaders meet up only once in a season.

Crusaders wary of being the team to beat

By Jerry Campany on August 27, 2013

When Saint Louis slapped Kahuku around in the fourth quarter of a showdown two weeks ago, Crusaders coach Matt Wright wasn’t a big fan of what it meant for his program. It was a good start, but there was so much more to work on. Sure, every team wants to be No. 1 at the end of the year. But taking the top spot early in August just gives opponents an extra incentive to knock a team off its perch. […]


Kamehameha’s Sua-Godinet faces tough test

By Jason Kaneshiro on August 25, 2013

Saint Louis hasn’t been easy on new starting quarterbacks so far this season. The Crusaders shut out Baldwin, which is adjusting to life without Keelan Ewaliko taking snaps, in a 55-0 win on Maui to open the season. A week later, Kahuku sophomore Tuli Wily-Matangi completed two passes in eight attempts for 12 yards as the Red Raiders relied on their ground game to keep pace before Saint Louis pulled away to a 45-24 win. Following a bye, Saint Louis […]

Saint Louis climbs back on top

By Dave Reardon on August 20, 2013

Before Saint Louis took on Kahuku on Saturday, many observers considered it a stretch to believe the Crusaders could pull off an upset of the two-time defending state champions. I was among them, fairly firm among the consensus pegging the Red Raiders as preseason No. 1 and not fully convinced the Crusaders had gotten past last year’s disappointing 5-5 campaign. Yes, beating Kahuku would be a stretch. But that’s exactly what multi-weaponed Saint Louis did on offense in winning 45-24 […]

Update: Saint Louis 45, Kahuku 24, final

By Paul Honda on August 17, 2013

7:21 p.m. Saint Louis kicked off, Kahuku returned to its 25-yard line and we’re underway! 7:26 p.m. Saint Louis fumbles away the punt return — there was no room to breathe — and Hiapo McCandless recovers for Kahuku at the Saint Louis 42-yard line. Senior Ronald Hurlbut Jr. is starting at quarterback for Kahuku. 7:28 p.m. Kahuku punts after another third-and-long goes for naught. Saint Louis ball on its 4-yard line. 7:35 p.m. Saint Louis gets on the scoreboard, touchdown […]

Mariota 5th in first ESPN Heisman poll

By Billy Hull on August 15, 2013

Former Saint Louis School and current Oregon Ducks quarterback Marcus Mariota was ranked fifth in the first ESPN Heisman Watch poll released on Thursday. Mariota received two first-place votes among the 16 voters and is the fourth quarterback on the list, trailing Ohio State’s Braxton Miller, reigning Heisman winner Johnny Manziel of Texas A&M and Alabama’s AJ McCarron. South Carolina defensive end Jadeveon Clowney tops the list. Mariota should have plenty of opportunities to roll up big numbers early in […]
