The Pearl City boys soccer team stamped itself as a contender on Saturday.
The Chargers, who lost in a penalty shootout in the first round of the OIA tournament last year, beat Kamehameha 2-1 to win the 808 Prep Soccer Showcase hosted by Kapolei on Saturday.
Pearl City went 3-0 in the tournament, beating Iolani and Mililani in shootouts before taking out the Warriors in regulation.
Kamehameha has not been to the state tournament since 2011 and Pearl City’s drought has lasted two years.

7th place – Kapolei 3, Mid Pacific 1
5th place – Iolani 2, Baldwin 1
3rd place – Mililani 0, Kalani 0 (Mililani wins in shootout)
