The Surfriders answered the call with a 58-6 pounding of the Hawks, a contest that the home team dominated in every area. >> CLICK HERE […]

By Brian McInnis on September 6, 2019

‘Iolani 40, Kailua 13, FINAL ———- 9:53: Seconds ticking off for career win No. 200 for ‘Iolani coach Wendell Look. 9:51: Friel strings together a couple of great passes to Ho-Mook for gains of 24 and 16 yards.

Hastings Yee Hoy and Kailua right the ship against Radford

By Christian Shimabuku on August 24, 2019

Kailua coach Joseph Wong didn’t want his team to dwell on previous losses, especially since the Surfriders were winless entering Friday night’s matchup against Radford. The Surfriders broke through for their first win of the season against the Rams in a 26-14 battle of attrition. In the end, Kailua (1-3) made fewer mistakes than the Rams (0-3), who turned the ball over five times against a stingy Surfriders defense. Despite the victory, the Surfriders turned it over three times themselves. […]

Kailua comes agonizingly close to first win of season

By Brian McInnis on August 17, 2019

The Kailua Surfriders put up points for the first time in 2019 on Friday night. What they wouldn’t have done for a point or two more in a 19-18 loss to Moanalua at Alex Kane Stadium. Kailua (0-3, 0-2 OIA Division I), coming off shutout losses to Punahou (40-0) and Leilehua (14-0), showed plenty of promise against a team that was coming off a signature win — Na Menehune beat ‘Iolani for the first time ever on a walk-off field goal […]

Na Menehune win by a point for the second straight week. 10:37: Kailua’s destiny drive is thwarted. Friel tosses one off the mark and Aukai Grace is there to snare it. Friel’s third pick comes at a very inopportune time for the hosts. Just a minute left. 10:33: Nothing doing for Moanalua. Three-and-out and the visitors are punting with 3:15 […]
