10:05: Amorozo is PICKED OFF by Saint Louis senior and Hawaii signee Kai Kaneshiro. Another clutch, prime time play made by a Crusader. East picks up a first down via Rosario and that does it. East advances to play California in Saturday’s championship game, while West matches up against American Samoa to play for third.
10:00: West calls timeout after a sack and an incompletion. They face third-and-12 with 1:52 left. This is certainly four down territory, and this possession will surely decide the game.
9:56: Faufata-Pedrina throws his first two incompletions of the day, and West will get the ball back with two timeouts, starting from its own 21 with 2:22 to go.
9:54: Rico Rosario gets stopped for no gain and West calls timeout with 2:47 left. A first down would virtually seal this thing for East. Rosario is an ideal guy to have in your backfield in this situation.
9:53: The onside kick is recovered and East takes over on its own 45 with 2:56 to go.
9:51: TOUCHDOWN WEST. They’re right back in this thing after Amorozo finds a wide open Calvin Mock for a 61-yard score. Santiago’s PAT is good, East leads 19-14 with 3:03 left. Both teams have all three timeouts. Will we see an onside kick here?
9:46: East turns it over on downs and West takes over from the 18 with 5:50 left.
9:41: West goes for it on fourth-and-1 from the East 34 and is STUFFED. East takes over with 7:26 left and is in the driver’s seat.
9:38: West starts off from its own 25 and had 9:04 to come back and rally.
9:36: FAUFATA-PEDRINA IS ON FIRE. He connects with Tamatoa Mokiao-Atimalala for an 11-yard score. He still hasn’t thrown an incompletion left. The two-point conversion is no good, but East extends its lead to 19-7 with 9:11 to go.
FOURTH QUARTER
9:33: Faufata-Pedrina remains perfect and connects with Stephen Eter for a 53-yard gain. East faces third-and-8 from the West 13 to start the fourth.
9:31: West can’t convert on fourth-and-11 from the East 27 after Aaron Faumui sacks Amorozo. Faumui is having a monster game so far with multiple sacks and tackles for loss.
9:27: Nice defensive stand by West, who force East to punt deep in their own territory. West takes over from its own 46 with 4:37 left in the third.
9:21: Kalamaku Kuewa picks off Bonner and East takes over from its own 18.
9:16: Multiple penalties have caused East to kick from its own 15. West will start the second half from its own 40.
THIRD QUARTER
HALFTIME STATS: The star of the game so far, without a doubt, has been Faufata-Pedrina. The senior is 6-for-6 with 80 yards, two touchdowns and no interceptions. He even has 23 rushing yards on one carry. It’s tough to look this comfortable in an all-star game with so much talent and unfamiliarity around a player, but he’s getting it done so far.

9:00: West goes all the way down to the East 36 but can’t convert on a Hail Mary. East takes a 13-7 lead into halftime while West will receive to start the second half.
8:55: TOUCHDOWN EAST. Faufata-Pedrina hits Kalani’s Tosh Kekahuna-Kalawe for an 18-yard score. Umaga misses the PAT but East leads 13-7 with 22 seconds left in the half.
8:51: Whoa, this first half is flying by. That’s what happens when there’s 10-minute quarters with almost no stoppages. East ball with 1:05 left on the West 20.
8:47: Saint Louis backup quarterback Maika Bonner enters the game for West and promptly throws a 23-yard strike to fellow Crusader Kainalu Reyes-Hackney. However, they can’t pick up another first down and punt. East takes over on its own 15.
8:40: Three-and-out for East. West takes over from its own 7 after a nice punt from Umaga. 7:08 left in the half.
8:36: East starts its next possession fro its own 31 with 8:37 left in the half.
8:35: West can’t convert on third down in the red zone and settle for a field goal. Mililani’s Damien Santiago boots a 31-yard field goal through the uprights, but after a penalty on the attempt, West picks up a first down on the East 7 yard line. On the very next play, Amorozo and Akila Arecchi hook up for a touchdown. Santiago knocks the PAT through and we’re all tied at 7 with 8:50 left in the second quarter.
SECOND QUARTER
8:29: Failauga picks up the first down and finishes the first period with six carries for 20 yards and one reception for 11 yards.
8:27: The West squad has responded well. Waipahu quarterback Braden Amorozo is engineering a nice drive, thanks in part to his backfield mate in Alfred Failauga. They call time facing fourth-and-1 at the East 12.
8:18: HOLY MOLY. ILH rivals Marcus Faufata-Pedrina and Scott McLeod hook up for a 14-yard score. Pedrina lobbed it up to McLeod, who used his imposing frame to haul it in. It wasn’t hard to see why he’s a Star-Advertiser first team selection. Blessing Umaga’s PAT is good and East leads 7-0 with 6:21 left.
8:11 p.m.: East will receive to start things off, starting from its own 34 after the kickoff.
FIRST QUARTER
I think it’s unfair the kids that played thier hearts and soul that couldn’t get a chance play but they let out of state kids play on the Hawaii East and West
