Nerdpod: Receivers v4.0

By Paul Honda on October 20, 2016

NERDPOD: Receivers v4.0 Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best pass catchers in the state. The regular season has drawn its curtain across the islands, but I’ll be adding more pass catchers to this list until the playoffs and state tourney are done, and maybe past that, too. This week, five additions. Numbers are nice, but seeing how they reflect a player’s season is usually intriguing. Even players who don’t have statistics that scratch the ceiling […]

GAME NIGHT 10/14: ‘Iolani/Saint Louis

By Hawaii Prep World on October 14, 2016

Seven games with major state tournament implications in most are on tap tonight on Oahu. No. 3 Saint Louis (6-1, 5-1 ILH D-I) can clinch a spot in the Open Division of the state tournament with a win over ‘Iolani (3-6, 0-6) coupled with a Punahou win over Kamehameha. Saint Louis QB Tua Tagovailoa, who is 553 passing yards behind career state record holder Timmy Chang, set a school record with 493 passing yards in the last meeting between the […]

Lee vs. Look: A battle of legends

By Jerry Campany on October 14, 2016

Every time Cal Lee and Wendell Look shake hands following a football game, another record is set. The Saint Louis coach has the most wins of any high school coach in Hawaii, and the ‘Iolani boss is fourth behind legends Larry Ginoza (189) of Waianae and Kamehameha’s Cal Chai (186). If your lone criteria is career wins, Look joins those legends on Hawaii’s Mount Rushmore of coaches. When they lead their teams onto the field in Friday’s ILH playoff game, […]


GAME NIGHT 10/7: ‘Iolani/Punahou

By Hawaii Prep World on October 7, 2016

It should be a fun weekend of football as the OIA Division I playoffs begin while the ILH regular season ends and the OIA D-II playoff race gets sorted out. No. 2 Punahou (5-1, 4-1) can finish off the ILH regular season in at least a tie for first place with Saint Louis with a victory over ‘Iolani (3-5, 0-5). In the event of a tie, the four-team “tournament” over the next two weeks will determine the overall ILH champion. […]

Nerdpod: Receivers v3.0

By Paul Honda on October 7, 2016

It’s the opening week of the OIA Division I playoffs, OIA D-II regular season is still in session, ILH is still battling for playoff positions, KIF and BIIF nearing the playoffs. And only the third installment of Nerdpod WRs. Some additions to the list that I wish I could’ve added in previous editions. Only so many hours in the day and I just haven’t been drinking as much coffee as usual. But here goes and, yes, previous nerdpodded receivers have […]

Nerdpod: Running Backs v2.0

By Paul Honda on October 6, 2016

NERDPOD: Running backs v2.0 The Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best running backs in the state. Why do I start again with running backs instead of receivers or quarterbacks? I suppose, well, it’s not that RB is my favorite position, or that they’re better as a group. It’s probably because even in this era of mostly single-back offenses, it is still an important, sometimes nearly impossible position to master. Between all the pass […]
