??? St. Louis’ success and the ILH’s success over the past 2 decades has benefitted the mediocre OIA teams; now more than ever as they can claim more head to head match ups. ??? typically makes no sense but I’m surprised that TooMeke and Annywaaays aren’t advancing the discussion.

Cal Lee is the reason coaches from mainland came to Hawaii in droves! Yes there were kids that were getting scholarships before St. Louis’ rise but during that time coaches were coming for St. Louis players and found gems at other local schools. ILH and OIA superfans are what make this comment section ridiculous! Ya’ll one-sided and don’t want to hear any other arguments then it turns into personal bashing! High School is over for most of us! Be rational!

ILH: Just stating the facts. Not whining and if you read the article, it’s more like Lee is whining. St Louis is surely one of the best teams in the state and it’s not a matter of hating them. It’s become a challenge for any OIA team to beat a stacked team like St Louis and when that happens and it has happen, it’s an accomplishment especially when it was accomplished by the hard work of “home grown” talented athletes. The open league has made it more challenging and right now, St Louis is the team to beat, no doubt about that.

I can’t believe Cal Lee can’t remember what happened 4 years ago. This isn’t the first time there’s been a postponement of a Mililani-St. Louis game. That happened 4 years ago.

As a former ILH and BIIF parent who went to an OIA school and is married to someone from the MIL, I am qualified to look at this from a holistic point of view. First of all, realize there is something beyond OIA and ILH. Then realize that profits are what make the prep world go round. The word “profit” may be filthy and pornographic on Oahu, but used in its proper context on the neighbor islands, it can be genuine, complete, crystaline, pure. Profits pay for young our men and women to wear nice uniforms. Profits take the pressure off of hard-working service industry parents who would otherwise have to reach deep into their pockets to make up the difference. Profits pay for the Roberts Hawaii school bus for a six-hour trip from Pahala to Kapaau, or the $225 Hawaiian Air plane ride from Molokai to Kahului via Honolulu to play Seabury in Upcountry Maui.

I sent my boy to Kamehameha, and the resources the princess graciously provided for him to play volleyball at Kapalama made it so much easier for his brother to play football at Konawaena and their sister to play tennis for the Wildcats. Maybe we could have afforded it, but it would have taken away from other aspects of their lives.

We’re taking a BIG hit this weekend in West Hawaii as Kealakehe was slated to play Konawaena at Yates Field this weekend in Kealakekua. I get it; act of god, no can help. But this game, when it’s played, attracts huge crowds. It is truly Hawaii’s version of the “Civil War,” as it pits North Kona against South Kona, cousin against cousin, generation vs. generation. Almost impossible to duplicate: Maui-Lahainaluna? Sort of; Punahou-Kamehameha? out of context; Hilo-Waiakea? Naah! Unfortunately, the money not generated by this game may come out of the pockets of immigrant Hispanic soccer parents, or blue-collar volleyball parents.

Of course Cal Lee is only focused on the team. He’s the architect of the ILH agenda with his boy Keith Amemiya. Don’t be surprised to see cal on the recruiting trail knocking on people’s doors during the hurricane. it’s what the ILH is about. profits over people
