Kamehameha kills clock, ‘Iolani

By Jerry Campany on September 7, 2013

Of all the drives that ended in touchdowns for Kamehameha in the Warriors’ win over ‘Iolani at Aloha Stadium on Friday night, one that didn’t end with a touchdown celebration might have been the most important. Kamehameha’s offense scored on four of its last six drives, settling for a field goal on their first one after halftime and taking a knee to end their last one of the game. The Warriors lined up to receive the second-half kickoff clinging to […]

7:48 p.m. Kickoff is a few seconds away. ‘Iolani to receive. 7:54 p.m. David vs. Goliath has begun. Raiders drive to the KS 20, drive stalls, 47-yard FG attempt is short. 7:59 p.m. Warriors no-huddle, hurry-up mode all on the ground, but the march stalls on a dead-ball personal foul call. Drive ends at the Raiders’ 30 on downs. 8:03 p.m. David scores on Goliath. The Raiders surgically maneuver around and through the Warriors with their hurry-up, no-huddle offense. Jordan […]

‘Iolani looking for annual ILH upset

By Jerry Campany on September 5, 2013

When ‘Iolani walks into Aloha Stadium to meet Kamehameha on Friday, it enters knowing that it hasn’t beaten one of the ILH’s big boys in more than two years. So, if history and the “due theory” are any judge, the Warriors better be wary. The Raiders haven’t beaten one of the big dogs in eight tries, so they are overdue. It may not be Kamehameha this week. It may be Saint Louis or Punahou. But one thing is pretty much […]

Max Look scored on a 49-yard punt return as the Raiders took a 28-0 lead into halftime in the first varsity football game between the two schools.

Look’s punt return to paydirt gave the home team a 21-0 lead with 2:55 left in the opening quarter. Running back Brent Tonaki’s 1-yard run up the middle opened the […]

Update: ‘Iolani 36, KS-Hawaii 0, final

By Paul Honda on August 24, 2013

1:58 p.m. It’s hot as Vegas this afternoon at Eddie Hamada Field. ALmost zero breeze, somewhat muggy and boiling heat. I’m expecting a clash of contrasts, hoping for a crazy pinball-action score. There’s no open space today to shoot video at the top of the bleachers (like last week when Leilehua visited), so I’m “stuck” in the ice-cold, air-conditioned press box. It’s a nice problem. Just can’t hear the crowd. Almost completely. My Pupule pick yesterday was and still is […]
