Waianae looking as if they won the game already and outcoached in the second half..
Keep pulling your sleeves up coach Young it isn’t helping you win the game. Waianae being OUTCOACHED and outplayed in the second half.
4th and 4 and dive to the fullback?!? Haha unreal, looking like the Matsumoto years.
Hey buddy you sure are quite now. Having problems with your keyboard?
Lol… Nope. @88
You cannot deny that they were outcoached in the second half and out played. The won the game however, they really looked like the Matsumoto years where they couldn’t finish the game.
You right…. Mililani had the Waianae Head Coach turning red… Thats some funny ishh…
Because the coaches pull the kids so early from the games that they dont know to finish!
But all in all they coaches. Called an excellent first half, best ive seen all season! But can we do away with halftimes please lol! 2nd half is always an issue except for the campbell game.
Great game waianae!.. as part of the coaching staff i think You guys should use that QB for kahuku. We didnt know he could pass the ball as well as he did..i dont think we touch him in the pocket lastnight..rosario and towne was a beast too. We practices for them but still they keep coming at us.wow… We made some ajustment 2nd half but still you guyd pull it off. You QB kept his poised and lead that offence down that field.we had no answer if that series. Great job waianae play llke you did on that drive and the first half. You guys got this! M4life..
Waianae was definitely out coached. Last night’s game was great lesson on the importance of being to able to adapt and improvise during the game. The Mililani staff took a look at what wasn’t working for them and chucked it out the window. They made the necessary adjustments and the game took a totally different turn.
Definitely a tale of two halves. Mililani should be a force in the next two years.
