Pac-Five relieved to get first win

By Nick Abramo on October 2, 2013

It was a game the Pac-Five football team did not want to lose. And the Wolfpack didn’t. They looked sharp last Friday in a 37-0 victory over St. Francis, a first-year ILH Division II varsity program. “We didn’t want to be the first team to lose (an ILH) game to them,” Pac-Five coach Kip Botelho said while heading to the bus outside the Aloha Stadium North end zone after the Wolfpack’s first win of the season. Some Pac-Five (a conglomeration of mostly small […]

Cupboard not bare at Pac-Five

By Jerry Campany on September 26, 2013

It would be easy to Pac-Five to hang its head and lament the talent that defected when St. Francis fielded a football team this year. No need. Pac-Five coach Kip Botelho has overcome it before. The last time a school defected from Pac-Five and went out on its own — Word of Life in 2008 — it paid off with two wins against the upstarts in both years the Firebrands were in existence and the Wolf Pack’s most successful season […]

ILH keeping close eye on hits

By Paul Honda on September 18, 2013

Officially, it wasn’t a meeting. Still, Punahou coach Kale Ane was willing to discuss the issue with the Interscholastic League of Honolulu before and after his team’s game with Kamehameha over the weekend. “It was a very informal phone conversation with the football coordinator (Georges Gilbert),” Ane said on Tuesday. “It was more talking about the game so we’re aware of things.” Clearly, in a new world of rule changes to protect players, the word is safety, and that word […]

Video: #3 Saint Louis vs. Pac-Five

By Paul Honda on September 11, 2013

For a very brief moment, the Division II Wolfpack seemed like they might stick with the D-I Crusaders. But coming off a loss to Kamehameha, Saint Louis played like a team on a mission. Or crusade.

It was a runaway, not a run-up

By Paul Honda on September 10, 2013

For fans who weren’t at Aloha Stadium on Friday when No. 3 Saint Louis defeated Pac-Five 73-6, it may seem like some piling on was going on. For me, a neutral observer, it wasn’t a run-up-the-score scenario. It was simply a matter of an extremely talented, senior-heavy, numbers-deep team facing a relatively inexperienced team with low numbers. Here’s what I think. 1. Saint Louis began to use reserves in the second quarter and continued to do this to the end. […]

Update: #3 Saint Louis 73, Pac-Five 6, final

By Paul Honda on September 6, 2013

4:11 p.m. It’s a pretty day here in Halawa. Blue skies, hardly a cloud and absolutely no breeze on the field at Aloha Stadium. Saint Louis is marching in. Pac-Five is starting to warm up. I’ll have updates here for the rest of the day and night. Kamehameha and ‘Iolani to follow. 5:12 p.m. Crusaders score on their second play from scrimmage, a 70-yard bomb from Ryder Kuhns to Devan Stubblefield down the left side. Wolfpack had a couple of […]

Video: Radford vs. Pac-Five

Pac-Five played an amazing first half and led 8-0 in the first few minutes, but Radford unleashed its wrath after intermission.

Football Tour: Pac-Five

By Paul Honda on August 14, 2013

Tour stop: Friday, Aug. 9, 2013 They’ve got fairly good numbers, just not a lot of experience. And that goes right to the focal point of the offense at Pac-Five, where Anthony Canencia is at the controls. Canencia is a gifted point guard who plays for University High. In fact, because of his track record — broken collarbone as a freshman, broke the other collarbone as a sophomore — Junior Rainbows basketball coach Walt Quitan is a bit nervous about […]
