Nerdpod: Running backs v3.0

By Paul Honda on October 27, 2016

NERDPOD: Running backs v3.0 The Star-Advertiser and Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best running backs in the state. Wow. Wowowow. They come at Challen Faamatau in all kinds of ways, none of them friendly. Chisel, blast, avalanche. Whatever it takes, defenses will come at Farrington Governor #13, and he has paid the price. Yet, he never stays down for long. He gets back up and keeps answering the call. Today, we take a look at […]

Waipahu Electric Co: Feel the Buzz

By Paul Honda on October 26, 2016

Waipahu High School has one of the larger enrollments on Oahu, which means success gets noticed. In fact, when it’s the kind of success the Marauders football team has, the atmosphere is charged. It’s almost electric, especially with an Oahu Interscholastic Association Division II championship game on Friday against Waialua at Aloha Stadium. Expectations have continued to rise for Marauder fans, especially after last week’s 13-7 win over Pearl City. That clinched a state-tourney berth for Waipahu (8-1), setting up […]

Waipahu’s late whirlwind finishes Pearl City

By Nick Abramo on October 22, 2016

Some day in the distant future when Waipahu players reminisce about this playoff win, they’ll recall the late flurry that got the deed done. This 13-7 victory over Pearl City on Friday night was by no means easy. The two teams traded mostly defensive blows all night — and it had the feel that it was going to overtime with a 7-all stalemate. But then things began to change. It was two defensive plays that got the ball rolling in Waipahu’s […]

GAME NIGHT 10/21: Pearl City/Waipahu

By Hawaii Prep World on October 21, 2016

For much of the OIA Division II season, Pearl City held the top spot. The Chargers won their first five league games by an average of 22.8 points before losing to Kaimuki and Waialua, dropping Pearl City from the No. 1 seed to the No. 4 seed in the last week of the regular season. Now the Chargers (5-3) have to beat Waipahu (7-1) to clinch a berth in the OIA D-II final and spot in the state tournament. The […]

Nerdpod: Receivers v4.0

By Paul Honda on October 20, 2016

NERDPOD: Receivers v4.0 Hawaii Prep World’s Paul Honda breaks down some of the best pass catchers in the state. The regular season has drawn its curtain across the islands, but I’ll be adding more pass catchers to this list until the playoffs and state tourney are done, and maybe past that, too. This week, five additions. Numbers are nice, but seeing how they reflect a player’s season is usually intriguing. Even players who don’t have statistics that scratch the ceiling […]

Failauga follows O-line’s lead for Waipahu

By Jason Kaneshiro on October 9, 2016

Although just a freshman, Waipahu running back Alfred Failauga is seasoned enough to appreciate the importance of sending credit to the guys up front. Moments after finishing off a 37-carry, 194-yard performance against Kalani on Saturday, Failauga’s opening comments were directed toward the Marauder offensive line. “I’d just like to thank my line for everything they do, Failauga said. “Without them I wouldn’t be anywhere.” The Waipahu line cleared the way for Failauga to post the seventh highest single-game rushing […]

GAME NIGHT 10/8: Kalani/Waipahu

By Hawaii Prep World on October 8, 2016

A modest three games on the schedule today on Oahu. Waipahu (6-1, 5-1) locks up a playoff berth and a top-two seed in the OIA Division II playoffs with a win over Kalani (3-2, 3-2), which needs a win to stay in the thick of the playoff race. A scenario of five teams finishing 5-2 in the OIA D-II is still possible with a Falcons win. HISTORY: Waipahu is 9-0 all-time against the Falcons. Live updates of the 6:30 p.m. […]

Nerdpod: Receivers v3.0

By Paul Honda on October 7, 2016

It’s the opening week of the OIA Division I playoffs, OIA D-II regular season is still in session, ILH is still battling for playoff positions, KIF and BIIF nearing the playoffs. And only the third installment of Nerdpod WRs. Some additions to the list that I wish I could’ve added in previous editions. Only so many hours in the day and I just haven’t been drinking as much coffee as usual. But here goes and, yes, previous nerdpodded receivers have […]
