Both
teams had met before this season.  The Warriors got the upper hand
at their gym for the first go-around.  This time it was at
Moanalua in the title game of their tournament.   Would the
Menehune be able to even the score?

The Warriors proved to be
able to carry out a game plan and execute as they were able to defeat
Moanalua 47-37 on Saturday night, and win the Tournament.

“We’ve
come in 2nd and 3rd in two other tournaments so it was good to win this
one,”  said Auwe Derego.  Derego, Kamakoa Downey-Jovanavich,
and Pii Minns all made the All-Tournament Team.  Minns was awarded
the Most Outstanding Player as well.

Kawika Lyons led the Warriors with 15 points.  Damien Kaehuaea added 13 points.

“I
think we have done well but still got a ways to go,” said Kamehameha
Heaed Coach Jesse Nakanishi.  “I like how the players have bought
in to their roles.  Minns and DeRego have really stepped it up and
done other things, even though they are just juniors.”

For
Moanalua, point guard Stevie Austin had another outstanding game. 
He was the leading scorer with 14 points and had numerous steals and
forced turnovers from the defensive end.  Marcus Monroe added 9
points.
