‘Iolani’s Mizutani sets ILH D-I record

By Billy Hull on October 16, 2015

In his first start against a Division I opponent, ‘Iolani’s Tai-John Mizutani looked completely lost. In the final game of his sophomore season, Mizutani looked like a seasoned veteran. Mizutani ended the 2015 season shredding the Kamehameha defense for 485 yards on 40-of-57 attempts to set an ILH Division I record for passing yards in a single game. He also broke the all-time ‘Iolani passing mark by almost 100 yards. Mizutani threw three touchdowns and had three different receivers go […]

The No. 2-ranked Saint Louis Crusaders are on a collision course with No. 1 Punahou for a rematch of a double-overtime classic in the first meeting next week to determine whether the Buffanblu win the ILH or the Crusaders force a playoff game. First, the Crusaders have to get past an ‘Iolani team that didn’t back down in a 28-17 loss earlier this season. The Raiders also played the Buffanblu tough in a 35-23 loss last week.

‘Iolani’s Makekau day-to-day with injury

By Billy Hull on October 5, 2015

‘Iolani senior receiver Keoni-Kordell Makekau left last Friday’s 35-23 loss to Punahou early in the first quarter with a shoulder injury and is “day-to-day” according to ‘Iolani coach Wendell Look. Makekau was on the receiving end of the first two completed passes thrown by quarterback Tai-John Mizutani when he took a hit near the ‘Iolani sideline to his shoulder. He left the game and had his pads off by the second quarter and didn’t return. Makekau currently leads the ILH […]

A week after one of the craziest high school football games ever, Punahou, which earned the No. 1 ranking after beating Saint Louis 51-45 in double overtime last Friday, hosts ‘Iolani to start second-round ILH Division I play. The four-time defending ILH Division I champions are 25-1 since the start of the 2013 season and have beaten ‘Iolani by the same 59-22 score in each of the last two meetings. The Raiders (2-4, 0-3) were competitive through two-plus quarters in […]

The second round of the ILH season gets underway tonight with a critical game for both No. 2 Saint Louis and No. 5 Kamehameha. The loser isn’t eliminated from the ILH race but let’s just put it this way: the loser is in real trouble. Saint Louis won the first meeting 31-27 but was shut out in the second half by the Warriors, who lost sophomore QB Thomas Yam late in the fourth quarter on a controversial hit by Saint […]

FIRST QUARTER The cushion is big for Keoni-Kordell Makekau on the opening series. The college prospect caught four passes for 58 yards, including a 15-yard TD strike from Tai-John Mizutani. Raiders miss the PAT. IOL 6, STL 0, 8:30. Chevan Cordeiro, in for Tua Tagovailoa, guides the Crusaders on an 11-play, 80-yard drive. Nice and smooth. RB Jimmy Gonsalves scores on an option pitch right for a 3-yard TD. Cordeiro was 3-for-3 for 27 yards in that drive. STL 7, […]
