After two weeks, there are positions still to be solidified and adjustments to be made. But Nanakuli coach Keala Watson sees the Golden Hawks moving in a positive direction. Nanakuli fell to 0-2 overall with a 27-14 home loss to Aiea on Friday in the OIA opener for both teams. The Golden Hawks scored on the game’s opening possession but couldn’t quite keep up with an efficient Aiea passing game that relied on short throws to move the chains. After […]

Game highlights from OIA Division II semifinal round action, Kaimuki at Nanakuli. Friday, Oct. 16, 2015. (Update 10/23: Adds more highlights and post-game interview with Kaimuki coach David Tautofi and WR/KR Andrew Neves.)
If not for Andrew Neves’ electrifying kickoff return that gave Kaimuki a 27-22 win over Nanakuli Friday night, the buzz following the OIA Division II semifinal would have likely centered on Golden Hawks backup quarterback Brandon Sevelino and coach Keala Watson’s daring. Sevelino, a senior listed on the roster as a wide receiver, had attempted just one pass this season when he took over behind center in place of starter Nainoa Banks, who was shaken up at the end of […]
