By Paul Honda on October 25, 2019

After Kamehameha jumped to a 14-7 lead late in the first half, there was nary a grin on the Buffanblu sideline. Kamehameha senior running back Tanner Moku, who returned early from a sprained MCL, ran like a bull in the first […]

In Karratti’s junior year (2012), the BIIF still played a round-robin schedule. D-I and D-II teams played together in […]
