Farrington won a three-team coin toss today for the last playoff spot in the OIA Open Division, Govs coach Daniel Sanchez said.
The Governors (2-8 overall) finished in a three-way tie with Kapolei and Waianae at 1-4 in league games.
Farrington will play at top-seeded Mililani on Saturday at 6:30 p.m. No. 2 seed Campbell (7-3, 4-1) will host No. 3 seed Kahuku (6-3, 3-2) on Friday at 7:30 p.m. in a rematch of the Sabers’ 28-27 win in Ewa Beach two weeks ago.
The coin flip was held today at Central Oahu Regional Park, site of the OIA cross country championship meet.
Kapolei finishes its season 3-7 overall. This is the fifth consecutive year the Hurricanes season ends after a loss to Kahuku.
Waianae finishes its season 1-8 overall, marking the worst season in school history. Waianae was 1-7 in its first year of varsity football in 1959.
Go get ‘em Govs! Although It’s going to be a tall task against Mililani, having the opportunity to be in the playoffs is going to help your program. You guys have nothing to lose. Play with Kalihi Pride & Passion. You earned this. Now go and prove the critics wrong.
Come on, 2-8 and they qualify for the playoffs! No need to play just pack it in. Farrington is not going to beat Mililani. Just a wasted of resources. Why do they let a 2-8 team into playoff? it makes better sense to just have the OIA open regular season with a first round bye, then the winner of the semi final play them the following week. Unbelievable to give a 2-8 team on a downward spiral a playoff berth.
Like all the guys on here say…it’s the ILH agenda lol. That’ll never happen in the ILH. They just want oia teams to win everything
Meanwhile, Kam’s season is over
And when Farrington plays for the OIA 3rd on Nov.2,2018, Kamehameha and Saint Louis lockers will be cleaned out.
