York: Mililani is ready for last step in title defense

By Nick Abramo on October 30, 2014

Discipline and hard work are at the core of Mililani’s football success. The product that goes on the field on game days is the result of that perspiration and preparation. What looks like a mistake-free, high-powered, complicated passing game is actually a lot simpler and more error-prone than most people think, according to Trojans coach Rod York. “It’s execution and repetition,” said York while his Trojans (10-0) were practicing Wednesday evening in preparation for Friday’s OIA championship game against Kahuku […]

Embracing the grind: Kahuku prepares

By Paul Honda on October 29, 2014

They’re grinders, this year’s Kahuku Red Raiders. Through any challenge or adversity, they simply keep moving forward. With the OIA Division I championship game just two days away, they practiced in helmets, shoulder pads and shorts. The usual 7 p.m. practice on Wednesdays was moved up to 4 p.m., so they started the workout sharing Carleton Weimer Field with the girls soccer team. Grade checks had been a pressing concern for first-year coach Lee Leslie. One starter will be out […]

Essentially, it’s Mililani’s ‘O’ vs. Kahuku’s ‘D’

By Nick Abramo on October 28, 2014

One team won with ease. One barely scraped by. That was the OIA semifinals on Thursday night, and we are left with a showdown that pits the league’s best offense hands-down (No. 2 Mililani) against, arguably, the league’s best defense (No. 3 Kahuku) on Halloween night. Of course, there will be people who argue that the Trojans (10-0) have the best defense, and they may have a point. The Red Raiders gave up one more point than Mililani, 104 to […]


TRENCH WARFARE: Manu vs. Amosa(s)

By Billy Hull on October 23, 2014

Defensive tackle Rex Manu has yet to make up his mind for college. For now he’s busy trying to wreck opposing defenses. The Mililani defensive tackle goes up against Campbell’s Atapana Amosa in tonight’s first OIA Division I semifinal game at Aloha Stadium. As always each series is judged on a 10-point must system like a boxing match. This is purely for fun. SERIES 1 Amosa goes head-to-head with Manu on the first play and holds up as Campbell completes […]

TRENCH WARFARE: Agasiva vs. Mageo

By Billy Hull on October 23, 2014

Mililani’s 6-foot-4, 280-pound offensive tackle Jordan Agasiva gave University of Hawaii fans something to cheer about when he committed to the Rainbow Warriors earlier this year. We get a chance to focus on him in the first of two OIA Division I semifinals tonight when his second-ranked Trojans face No. 6 Campbell. The Sabers will try and get pressure with 6-3, 230-pound defensive end Josiah Mageo, who has the tough task of trying to bring down Trojans QB McKenzie Milton […]

Oahu powers need to avoid the bagel

By Jerry Campany on October 19, 2014

It’s a mantra shared by all coaches still competing as the OIA enters its semifinals. Thinking like that is a big reason why they have made it this far. But they may be wise to look at the big picture and realize that all they have to do is win one game in two chances to make it to the state tournament. The OIA semifinals pit Campbell vs. Mililani and Kahuku vs. Farrington on Thursday at Aloha Stadium. Winners play […]
