Leilehua’s chess game in the trenches stymies Waipahu and star running back Alfred Failauga

By Paul Honda on October 19, 2019

Success is sometimes a matter of evolution. When Leilehua met Waipahu last year, the Mules won 50-20 during the regular season. When the playoffs arrived, the Marauders stunned the Mules 29-6 with some deft adjustments in the trenches. It was only fitting that Leilehua adapt and evolve this season, and the results were solid. Leilehua is in the OIA Division I final — and earned a state-tournament berth — with a 13-7 win over Moanalua on a soggy, cool Friday […]

It just […]

Finality: Alfred Failauga battles to the end

By Paul Honda on October 18, 2019

The numbers are borderline preposterous, reflecting a human being who somehow carried the ball this many times — 940 to be exact — over a four-year span for an astronomical number of yards. Alfred Failauga’s high school football career came to an end on Friday night, undoubtedly too early in the eyes of Waipahu Marauder fans near and far. The 5-foot-11, 190-pound running back finished a bruising effort against No. 7 Leilehua with 112 yards on 31 carries. The Mules […]
