By Nick Abramo on October 11, 2015

Offensive fireworks are the norm in high school and college football these days, but don’t discount defense and what it can do for your team. Think back to the old days, if you can, about your proverbial daddy’s football team. That’s when runs up the gut were what you did extensively and close games were usually decided by a 2-point conversion or the unsuccessful attempt at such. For every 76-53 rampage where there is all kinds of offensive wizardry in […]

By Billy Hull on September 9, 2015

What team has traveled to the mainland more in the last four years to play a football game? Mililani? The Trojans just played on the mainland for the very first time. Saint Louis? It hasn’t traveled away from the islands since Timmy Chang was its quarterback. Punahou? Close. It has played on the mainland in three of the last five years. That honor belongs to the Radford Rams. Head coach Fred Salanoa takes his team to the state of Washington […]
