The sisters were trained by other coaches. They were already great prior to playing for Proformance.

I have had the privilege of watching these two fine young ladies practice with my daughter while playing with Hawaii Storm.

I’d like to share a great story. A few years ago, Lily, Jovi, and Leiah from Kahuku were on a Storm team that was filled with 6th and 7th graders who were not attending private schools. Most of the girls were younger and still learning to play.

That Storm team with Lily (grade 8); Jovi (grade 7); Leiah (grade 8) was entered into the Mid Pacific JV Pre-Season Tournament.

They would go on to beat Kamehameha, Iolani, and Mid Pacific. Margins of victory would range from 17-35.

The Storm coaches set this up to showcase the girls talents’ for the ILH AD’s to watch.

Long story short. I am pretty sure Kamehameha and Punahou are kicking themselves now.

And huge props to the Holy Family and Hawaii Storm coaches. These are the ones (along with family) who really put in the work to make these 3 young ladies special before anyone knew who they were.
