Damien, St. Francis may declare for D-I

By Nick Abramo on April 2, 2017

There’s no question Damien and St. Francis will be classified in Division II for Interscholastic League of Honolulu football this fall. It’s possible, however, that both the Monarchs and Saints will declare for Division I in the three-tiered state tournament. At a league meeting recently, according to sources, a discussion of athletic directors and league personnel centered on declaring Saint Louis, Punahou and Kamehameha for the Open Division state tournament, Damien and St. Francis for Division I states, and ‘Iolani […]

By Paul Honda on October 27, 2016

NERDPOD: Running backs v3.0 The Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best running backs in the state. Wow. Wowowow.

Yet, he never stays down for long. He gets back up and keeps answering the call. Today, we take a look at […]

St. Francis continues to build strong program

By Christian Shimabuku on October 22, 2016

In four short years, St. Francis has gone from a football team to a football program. Formerly an all-girls’ school, it went co-ed in 2006 and the student body is currently about equal in male and female enrollment. In October 2012, the school got permission from the ILH and Sister Joan of Arc Souza announced plans to start a varsity program. Those plans came to fruition in the 2013 season. St. Francis dropped their first 16 ILH games. It wasn’t […]

VIDEO: St. Francis vs. Pac-Five (ILH playoffs)

By Paul Honda on October 14, 2016

Sky’s the limit for smashmouth Saints

By Paul Honda on October 14, 2016

They ran the ball well, but the end zone mostly eluded the St. Francis Saints. Defensively, they were pitching a shutout against Pac-Five quarterback Ryan Johnson, who has a history of torching defenses. And yet, early in the second quarter, the Saints had a mere 8-0 lead after dominating action on most snaps. That’s when the punt return team of St. Francis turned things into a block party. Two blocks — the first by Chris Vanisi (who now wears #94) […]

Saint Louis wins card draw

By Jerry Campany on October 7, 2016

Saint Louis and Punahou both won their final games in the first round of the ILH regular season to finish 5-1. That forced a card draw to determine seedings for the second round, and Saint Louis came up with the ace. That leaves Iolani to play the Crusaders at Aloha Stadium on Oct. 14 with Punahou facing Kamehameha. The winners of those two games will play Oct. 21 for the ILH title. If Kamehameha or Iolani can pull off a […]
