Kahuku remains at No. 22 in USA Today rankings

By Hawaii Prep World on October 10, 2016

Defending state champion Kahuku remains at No. 22 in the latest USA Today Super 25 rankings released on Monday. The Red Raiders were idle last week after finishing the regular season 7-0 in the OIA Blue. Kahuku (7-1) hosts Leilehua (4-4) in the quarterfinals of the OIA playoffs on Friday night at Carlton Weimer Field. There was almost no change in the top 25 as the top 16 teams all remained in the same order as most schools on the […]

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 […]

Kahuku moves up again in USA Today Super 25

By Hawaii Prep World on October 3, 2016

For the second consecutive week, Kahuku moved up on spot in the latest USA Today Super 25 rankings released on Monday. The Red Raiders are now No. 22 in the nation after improving to 7-1 this season with a 56-6 win over host Kaiser on Friday night in Hawaii Kai. Steven Lombard rushed for two touchdowns and Sekope Latu snapped a streak of 75 consecutive games played by the Red Raiders without a 100-yard receiver. Latu finished with four receptions […]


Kahuku’s Fisiiahi forced to move on

By Billy Hull on October 1, 2016

If Kahuku senior Vili Fisiiahi was trying to keep his return to Kaiser to himself, his coaching staff wasn’t having any of it. “We kind of rubbed it in during the week that we’re going back to Vili’s house,” Red Raiders coach Vavae Tata said. Fisiiahi was part of that 2014 Kaiser team that handed Kahuku its last loss in the OIA regular season. It was a different story on Friday night as No. 1 Kahuku coasted to a 56-6 […]

By Hawaii Prep World on September 30, 2016

The regular season begins to wind down Friday night with the OIA Division I playoffs set to begin next week. No. 1 Kahuku returns to the site of its last regular season loss in the OIA. The Red Raiders (6-1, 6-0 Blue) have clinched the top seed out of the Blue division, a first-round bye in the OIA playoffs and a berth in the state tournament, but have some unfinished business with Kaiser (2-5, 1-5). The Cougars pulled off one […]
