Andrew Ah New is the new boys' varsity soccer coach at Kamehameha Schools, athletic director Erv Kau announced yesterday.

Ah New led the Kamehameha Blue junior varsity team to second place in the Interscholastic League of Honolulu last season. In 1999, they won the ILH JV championship under Ah New.

"I've been around here for awhile so I'm familiar with most of the players," Ah New said.

Ah New is a graduate of St. Louis School, where he played varsity soccer from 1973 to '75. He played semi-pro soccer with Vaiete S.C. from 1975 to '80.

Other new varsity boys' head coaches include Paul Fu (Pac-Five), Scott Keopuhiwa (Pearl City) and Herb Schreiner (Kaiser).

Keopuhiwa is a former assistant at Moanalua, Pearl City, Punahou and Kamehameha.

Schreiner, the Pac-Five coach before Fu, returns to his alma mater; he was a member of the first Kaiser boys team and is a 1976 Kaiser graduate.
