THE HEALING PROCESS
Students Michelle Witteveen of Punahou and Janice Sung of Iolani are among the many who were upset by last spring's ill will between some of the two schools' athletes that culminated in property destruction at Iolani. They decided to do something to foster a positive relationship.
Witteveen and Sung each have signed up about 200 students from their respective schools for a new Young Leaders club, in which the schools will combine forces to do good works in the community.
"I want to leave something of importance behind when I leave Punahou," said Witteveen, a senior tennis player.
Back in the Day
TWENTY YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
Kurt Gouveia swiped his third interception of the night on the final play of the game as Waianae held off Kaiser 21-13 in front of 14,689 fans at Aloha Stadium. Gouveia also recovered a Cougar fourth-quarter fumble inside the Searider 25 yard line.
Waianae later tied Iolani, 7-7, in the Prep Bowl. Gouveia, the Star-Bulletin's Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year in 1980, went on to a long career in the NFL, including a Super Bowl victory with the Washington Redskins.
