Qwineysha Wheeler's game-high 14 points lifted host Moanalua over Kapolei 32-24 last night in the first round of the OIA Red playoffs.
The Menehune, who limped into the playoffs after losing their final four regular season games, jumped out to a 13-4 first-quarter lead. Moanalua's defense stymied the Hurricanes, who were held to single digits in each quarter.
With the win, Moanalua advances to play top-seeded and undefeated Radford tomorrow.
