Ever ask yourself why the player hasn’t played since December 11th. Hmm could it be because the player sustained a head injury. Yes you’re right, Seniors took priority during that season and other players weren’t afforded much game time until other team injuries or foul trouble opened up more opportunities for other teammates to play. Kamauoha-Phillips speed was seen as a “set back” for the team as well.
There’s a lot of details general public aren’t aware of including the “politics” that can get sometime get in the way. Everyone has their opinions but wow given that athletes have been robbed of their seasons due to this virus with not that much chances to play, might be nice just to let these players enjoy the moment.

Is the coach with initials DY seriously the one being talked about as he is back coaching youth girls?

Regardless of the legal proceedings or final rulings, that is not right to have him coaching girls again. The things he did were documented and disgusting. Unforgiveable. JMO.

It’s funny that we get more truthful information in these comments section than in the article at the top.

Made an impact? Kaumaoha-Phillips did not play much during her sophomore season. She registered several DNP’s. How do you make an impact when you are the 9th-11th person on the bench. I am mot saying she isn’t good now. But we are talking 2 seasons ago. She got some playing time later in the ILH season, but not that much prior to that. During that season KS started 4 guards, Masaki, Naum, Feary, and Marfil. The first guard off the bench was Mangalao. They surrounded the guards around Sua-Godinet. They usually just rotated those 5 at guard. After Lagi tore her ACL right before the ILH playoffs and KS wasn’t winning too much, Coach Straight went deeper into her bench and Kaumaoha-Phillips and Dela Vega started to play more.

And hasn’t played a game since December 11? Kamehameha has played Maui 2 times; Torrance High from California; and HBA on the 21st. All of these games were played after December 11.

You can go on their Athletics Youtube. All the games are there with the dates to verify.
