Govs keep rolling, ‘Canes face uphill climb

By Paul Honda on August 24, 2014

It’s not very typical for an 0-2 team to have reason for optimism, but that’s where the Kapolei Hurricanes are. Sure, the ninth-ranked ‘Canes lost 28-26 to No. 6 Farrington on Saturday, but after two games — the other being at Kahuku — they’ve gotten plenty of big plays from their defense and offense. That includes first-year starting quarterback Alton Julius, who threw three touchdown passes without a pick against Farrington. “He’s very good, so we’re excited about how good […]

LIVE BLOG: #9 Kapolei vs. #6 Farrington

By Paul Honda on August 23, 2014

4:43 p.m. Saturdays are a beautiful thing in prep football. Why? JV kickoffs at Ticky Vasconcellos Stadium are at 3 p.m. If this were Friday game, it would be the usual 6 p.m. JV kickoff with a late varsity game to follow. Daytime football. Most excellent. A lot of folks have been looking forward to this game. Kapolei will bring its hard-nosed, run-first attack. The Kahuku smashmouth flavor is courtesy of new offensive coordinator Darren Johnson, who featured the I-formation […]

Farrington looks quite crisp considering it’s just one week into preseason. Two scrimmages in — against ILH powerhouses Kamehameha and Punahou, no less — and it is clear the Governors are bent on expanding their offensive menu. Often, they’ve lined up in the spread to give Montana Liana more options in the aerial game. But they’ve also lined up in slot-I (or I-slot, whichever tickles your fancy) sets and gashed for yardage inside, too. This morning at Alexander Field, new […]

No. 6 Farrington All-State football

By Jerry Campany on August 2, 2014

All good teams routinely describe itself as a family. At Farrington, they have the roots to prove it. Defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko made the Star-Advertiser’s first team after last season, joining three older brothers in taking the honor and continuing a run of family excellence going back to the Nogas and the Cadientes. The run started in 2005 when the Star-Bulletin selected Whitley Fehoko for its offensive line and continued in 2006 when both papers chose Sam Fehoko on the […]

Nick’s notebook: Scrimmage week

By Nick Abramo on August 1, 2014

Things learned, observed and taken in by osmosis while waltzing around various high school football training camps for a week: >> Kapolei running back Ronald Young won the best running back award at the All-Polynesian camp in Utah this summer. >> Hurricanes coach Darren Hernandez said his team could still be a factor even if it starts 0-3, which is a possibility since it opens the regular season at Kahuku, vs. Farrington at Roosevelt’s Ticky Vasconcellos Stadium, and at home […]
