Punahou beats Kamehameha in playoff preview

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 29, 2018

The 190th all-time meeting between Punahou and Kamehameha went to the Buffanblu. No. 191 could carry far more meaning. No. 3 Punahou pulled away from the sixth-ranked Warriors in the second half in a 30-14 ILH Open Division win on a humid Friday night in Halawa. If the division standings hold with No. 1 Saint Louis (6-0, 5-0 ILH Open) remaining in the top spot, the Buffanblu (5-2, 4-2) and Warriors (3-4, 2-3) figure to meet again in a playoff […]

Win No. 20 in a row not easy for No. 1 Saint Louis

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 22, 2018

Saint Louis managed to survive without its starting quarterback on Friday, although the Crusaders’ 20th consecutive win wasn’t secure until the clock hit :00. With quarterback Jayden de Laura sidelined, the Saint Louis defense helped stake the top-ranked Crusaders to a 23-0 lead on Kapolei in an OIA-ILH Open Division matchup on the West side. But the defending state champions ended up having to sweat out the final seconds before a walk-off sack by Jordan Botelho and Stanley McKenzie finished […]

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 21, 2018

No. 1 Saint Louis 30, Kapolei 22, FINAL  Onside kick coming and Kapolei recovers at the Saint Louis 45. 0:16 still showing no timeouts for the Hurricanes. First down, incomplete. Looked like they wanted to try a hook and ladder. Clock went down to :03 reset to :10. Rapis is sacked by Jordan Botelho and Stanley McKenzie and that’ll do it. Saint Louis hangs on. On fourth down Rapis goes deep to Sheldon Mcleod who makes the catch for a […]

Falcons reverse fortunes in first win

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 15, 2018

Once Kalani mastered the first step in its offense, the Falcons soared to their first win of the season. The Falcons had been shut out in four of their first five games while being outscored 187-8, and Friday’s homecoming game against McKinley at Kaiser got off to another ominous start. On the game’s first play from scrimmage, a low snap skittered past Kalani quarterback Nicholas Sakamoto for an 18-yard loss back to the Falcons 6. Kalani’s second possession generated some […]

No. 10 Damien survives with wild finish

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 8, 2018

The buzz surrounding the frantic finish to Damien’s comeback win against Waipahu on Friday was just starting to settle when Eddie Klaneski’s focused to the week ahead rather than the just completed victory. “I hope we don’t have too many injuries that hurt us the rest of the way, because we have our nemesis in ‘Iolani coming up this week,” Klaneski said, moments after the Monarchs pulled out a 13–10 victory over the host Marauders in Friday’s OIA-ILH Division I […]

St. Francis’ Kekahuna steps up with Aina-Chaves out

By Jason Kaneshiro on September 1, 2018

St. Francis’ most prolific playmaker spent most of Friday night on a trainer’s table, his right ankle heavily wrapped. But before and after an injury to running back Jonan Aina-Chaves, the Saints defense set the tone for a 27-13 OIA-ILH Division II win over Pearl City. St. Francis junior Shepherd Kekahuna opened a dynamic two-way performance with a 57-yard interception return on Pearl City’s second play from scrimmage and finished with two of the Saints’ four picks. Tapena Tuitupou was […]
