As far as education goes…not all will move on to college and play at a higher level. But get your facts straight. There are a hand full of students out of the small Konawaena Student Body that do go on to D3 schools based on ACADEMIC scholarships and choose to continue to play sports. Get EDUCATED…..haters gonna hate. Life is what YOU make of it. Don’t hate on the kids….it all start’s at home.

Education First and all those negative people out there who just can’t take the success that Konawaena has been receiving. Just get over it because jealousy will just make you crazier than you already sound. Education First wish he had 7 state titles, but oops!! Konawaena and Bobby Awa did it again. As for high academics of course Konawaena has them, otherwise they wouldn’t be smart enough to WIN and outsmart teams. Fast forward to 2030- Konawaena winning 3 more state title and Education First still upset and jealous so he writes more bad comments to make him feel better about himself. HATERS gonna HATE and never satisfied with the result. I love how the sound of Konawaena winning upsets so much jealous fans out there. Just accept the lost and move on please before you end up jumping off a cliff, lol..

Fast forward to 2030. “Hey can I please trade my 7 state titles for a bowl of soup, a collared shirt, and some sandals?”

Once the Ed First alias jumps on this thread you know it’s really jumped the shark.

Excuses, excuses, excuses. How come the Kona basketball players rarely go to higher level academic colleges? It seems that they Al Bundy and max out at the HHSAA state tourney.

Odd that I follow girls basketball? If you pay any attention to this site, I follow all sports. I’m not one team specific but neighbor Island teams I support due to your attitude towards them. As for their academics, there are more than just athletes that factor in to those scores, and unfortunately public schools can’t pick and choose who attends the school.

Old Fashion- don’t talk about yourself like that. You started the hate and now resort to name calling?

I find it odd (THE RIM) that you follow girls basketball too much. But hey, if that’s the only thing you guys can win I totally understand. When you win football or boys basketball or baseball let’s talk. When the kids on your teams end up at Ivy League Schools let’s talk. Your most famous Wildcat Alum, Galdeira, stopped going to class and flunked out. I mean, how pathetic is that? So she had to turn pro. I mean is that what you guys teach them out there? Waste the university’s money, not attend classes, flunk out.

I would trade zero titles and know my kid can finish college for 7 or 8 or 9 state titles in girls basketball and unable to secure my college degree.

Degree > Girls Basketball State Titles

A Bowl of Soup > Girls Basketball State Titles

Kona is also known for some of the worst academics in the state. With such a low curriculum, I am surprised you guys don’t dominate sports in Hawaii. How many AP classes do these kids take? They have so much extra time they should win, lol.

Old Fashioned- that was Fuki who said that not me, but who cares, you’re a sore loser plain and simple. Go find all the excuses you want with no justification at all. Please read all your posts because you contradict yourself pretty bad. But hey, comparing them to Golden State is pretty good i think, unless you think in your mind that Golden State plays Street Ball at the NBA level and has bad coaching.
