Wildcats!

These girls been beating these Honolulu teams since “small kid” days!
Defense wins championships …………..checkout the box outs and plan old defense on film during all the games. ILH b-ball is just scoring without defense and rebounding (positioning). History has proven for the past 4 years. Stacked teams might work in the ILH, but at states ………….nope! The championship game was Luna vs Wildcats.

Sting Rays basketball sets the fundamentals for success.

I guess nobody knows if Konawaena’s Mikayla Tablit got scholarship somewhere, somebody tell coach laura go get um. If you wanna attract the fans get the local girls (with skills) winning attitude. I know, how can you turn down a PAC 12 education and facilities, but why would you want to play on a bottom tier team in no matter the conference. What kind of legacy is that? Make Hawaii great again, better chance to make a impact in the Big West than power conferences. I know, I know, how can you turn them down. Oh well, one can only dream.

Let’s not forget when they stopped the game and requested that spectators not throw things onto the court for the safety of the players….which was done after a “bad call” on one of the Konawaena players. Both sides had good and bad supporters, as any sport with passionate fans.

Konawaena seems to always play well. This particular game
was inspiring – makes me want to go out and mow the lawn
and do other chores; maybe more. Hope we all can behave
with as much class – win or lose – as Konawaena and their coaches.
Aloha, J. Tsue

Oh dang… #40 my bad on the novel,

too many words??? Maybe less emotion and more heart should be at the forefront of your perspectives instead of trying to demoralize specific players and fans. Wait- that might be my behavior talking again….
#33 HELLyeh- Mikayla is an exceptional product of D1 potential; any D1 program would be fortunate to have her.

Hawaii NEEDS the shot clock for Boys & Girls Basketball. Live in the Now & not the past!

Whhy – Are you unable to comprehend basic sentences? I am NOT opposed to having a shot clock you imbecile, I said the good coaches will adapt and play within the rules and make necessary adjustments. Even with a shot clock, you can eat away at the clock by using good clock management. Sorry but you sound like an idiot trying to defend something that is not an issue during this tournament. I’ll end with this, Konawaena outplayed and out coached Maryknoll, who had far more talent and depth in all areas. If you can’t handle that I don’t know what more to say. And for the record, if you have followed my posts throughout the years, I’m not a Konawaena parent nor do I live in Kona. Add a shot clock and the good coaches like Awa will adjust, they always do and thats why they keep winning and you keep complaining.

#34 If I live in Hilo but I or my parents like me play at Kona because I played on their club team since small kid time, I cannot just go to that school cause I feel like it, I have to live in that district!! I love the way Kona plays & the way coach Awa coaches and I’m happy they always win cause they deserve it
