Things started to turn in the third quarter when the two teams combined for no yards in the first 16 plays of the second half. Then came the comeback attempt. A 72-yard interception return for a touchdown by Destin […]

By Paul Honda on November 14, 2015

This dang rain hasn’t stopped. It stalls though. It holds up every now and then. But tonight? It hasn’t really stopped. At times, the wet stuff fell from the Halawa sky relentlessly. Not enough to create huge puddles right away. Just wet enough to make any receiver think twice about fundamentals. And more than moisture, there was wind. It was constant from the mauka end zone to the makai, especially early in the day when Waianae and Kahuku played. By […]
