GAME NIGHT 10/7: St. Francis/Pac-Five

By Hawaii Prep World on October 7, 2016

It should be a fun weekend of football as the OIA Division I playoffs begin while the ILH regular season ends and the OIA D-II playoff race gets sorted out. St. Francis (3-2, 2-1) needs a win over Pac-Five (2-3, 0-3) in the first game of an ILH doubleheader at Aloha Stadium to finish the regular season tied with Damien in the ILH Division II race. Don’t count out the Wolfpack, however. Pac-Five lost in triple-overtime to Damien, 50-49 last […]

Nerdpod: Running Backs v2.0

By Paul Honda on October 6, 2016

NERDPOD: Running backs v2.0 The Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best running backs in the state. Why do I start again with running backs instead of receivers or quarterbacks? I suppose, well, it’s not that RB is my favorite position, or that they’re better as a group. It’s probably because even in this era of mostly single-back offenses, it is still an important, sometimes nearly impossible position to master. Between all the pass […]

Saints break from script for classic finish

By Paul Honda on September 24, 2016

From chapter one, the events unfolded like an old-fashioned mystery novel. The predominant favorite, first-place Damien, airing the football out from the start. The other faction, underdog St. Francis, refusing to conform. Battering ram. Patient. Eschewing this newfangled “forward pass” possibly because, as the great gridiron fundamentalist preacher Dick Tomey often said to the masses via the social media of the mid-1970s (television), “Three things happen when you pass the football, and two of them are bad.” Those words echoed […]

Saints overcome adversity for first ILH win

By Christian Shimabuku on September 17, 2016

Facing an early 20-0 deficit in the second quarter was not something that St. Francis wanted, but it wasn’t something that it wasn’t ready for. “It definitely wasn’t part of the game plan,” Saints coach Kip Akana said. “We talked to the kids last week about how we want to meet adversity.” The Saints (2-2, 1-1 ILH) stormed back to score 24 unanswered points and eventually beat the Wolfpack (2-2, 0-2) 30-27 in a back-and-forth battle. St. Francis’ rally was […]

GAME NIGHT 9/16: Pac-Five/St. Francis

By Hawaii Prep World on September 16, 2016

Only two ranked teams are in action Friday night in a seven-game slate scheduled for Oahu. The lone ILH game is at Aloha Stadium pitting Division II teams Pac-Five (2-1, 0-1) against St. Francis (1-2, 0-1). Wolfpack QB Ryan Johnson accounted for four TD’s and threw for 352 yards in a loss to Damien last week. HISTORY: Pac-Five leads the series 3-1 but St. Francis won its first ILH game in program history last year beating the Wolfpack in the […]

It’s going to be a dogfight in ILH D-II

By Billy Hull on September 2, 2016

For a half, Damien looked like the clear-cut, no doubt favorite to repeat as the ILH Division II champs. The Monarchs held a 21-0 lead and weren’t giving up anything on defense to St. Francis at Aloha Stadium on Friday night. Things started to turn in the third quarter when the two teams combined for no yards in the first 16 plays of the second half. Then came the comeback attempt. A 72-yard interception return for a touchdown by Destin […]
