Now You Know

DIAMOND DOMINANCE

Bullet In 24 years of softball competition, Kailua has won 12 OIA (and nine state) championships. The OIA teams with the second-most league crowns are Mililani and Castle, with three each.


Back in the Day

SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO THIS WEEK

Bullet Freshman sensation Noe Miranda hurled her second no-hitter of the season to lead Kamehameha past Punahou, 4-0. Only one Buffanblu batter reached base -- on a walk.

Bullet Kamehameha, coached by Hank Makekau, would fall short in their quest for a state title that spring (Pearl City won), but would capture its first state crown the following year.

Recruits start
making decisions

The wait to see where two Kahuku all-state defensive players, including the Star-Bulletin defensive player of the year, are heading for college should be over by next week.

Red Raiders coach Siuaki Livai said Chris Kemeo'atu (DL, 6-foot-5, 330) and Aaron Francisco (DB, 6-3, 190) are completing their recruiting trips this week.

"Aaron (Francisco) is going to take his trip to Arizona, and he'll probably be ready next week after he visits UH," Livai said yesterday. "I think UH has a good chance."

Livai also said Kemoe'atu is visiting Nebraska this week and should also be ready to make a decision early next week.

Two Kahuku players did make commitments yesterday, with Semisi Livai (LB, 6-0, 200) making a verbal commitment with Utah and Saia Hafoka (WR, 5-10, 165) committing to Brigham Young.

Livai said UH did not offer a scholarship to either player.

Football clinic features college coaches

The Nike Hawaii Football Clinics are March 2-4, at the Turtle Bay Hilton Hotel. Speakers include coaches Rob Oviatt (Washington State), Pat Hill (Fresno State), Tyrone Willingham (Stanford) and former Pittsburgh and Tennessee coach John Majors.

Registration each day is in the lobby on the first floor. Times to register are: March 2, 2-10 p.m.; March 3, 8 a.m.-10 p.m., and March 4, 8 a.m.-noon.

Football giants square off

USA Today No. 1 De La Salle -- winner of 113 consecutive games -- and No. 2 Poly-Long Beach agreed last week to meet on Oct. 6. Poly was 13-0 this past season and won the California Southern Section Division I title. De La Salle returns quarterback Matt Gutierrez (who recently participated in the Iolani Classic as a basketball player) and linebacker Derek Landri.

Macfarlane nets another honor

Punahou senior Milia Macfarlane is the Gatorade Hawaii State High School Volleyball Player of the Year. The Star-Bulletin player of the year, who was also named the state tournament MVP, is headed to UH to play basketball.
