Look carefully — the Kamehameha Warriors really do wear blue in their collars.
The Warriors, using a lock-down defense of 2-3 zone and man-to-man, limited Kahuku to just two points in a stretch of 3 minutes late in the game for a 47-45 win in the final of the Hawaiian Airlines/HHSAA Boys Basketball Division I State Championships at Blaisdell Arena.
Kahuku had a chance to tie or win in the final seconds. After Kamehameha’s Auwae DeRego made the second of his two foul shots, the Warriors led 47-45 with 3.8 seconds left. Instead of calling timeout immediately, however, Kahuku inbounded after the foul shot before calling time with 2.5 seconds to go.
Inbounding from the sideline about 75 feet away, Kahuku passed to Akina, who speed-dribbled up the sideline and launched a 40-footer that missed left at the horn.
“I didn’t want to call a timeout right away,” Kahuku coach Hiram Akina said. “I wanted to get the ball to halfcourt. Our play was to get it to Kona (Schwenke) inside, but we were too far down (court). I just wish we had one more timeout.”

Kamehameha captures crown
By Wes Nakama
Honolulu Advertiser
Kamehameha won its first Hawaiian Airlines/Hawai’i High School Athletic Association Boys Division I Basketball Championship since 1992 last night, rallying past Kahuku, 47-45, before a rock-concert-like crowd of 5,208 at Blaisdell Arena.
Senior Pi’i Minns scored a game-high 20 points, including 10 in the fourth period and the go-ahead basket with 1:22 remaining, as the Warriors finished the regular and postseason with a record of 14-1.
“This means everything, not just for our team and our school, but also for all the Hawaiians out there,” said Minns, a 6-foot-3 guard. “It feels so good to take (the title) back to the hill (on Kapalama Heights). It’s a privilege and an honor.”
Kamehameha survived a 62-57 triple-overtime marathon against Kaimuki in Friday’s semifinals, and had to fight through another huge obstacle in Kahuku (19-2).
The Red Raiders led 39-36 after Kona Schwenke’s free throw with 5:15 remaining, but Minns eventually tied it 40-40 on a jumper with 2:44 left, and the Warriors took the lead with 2:02 remaining on a layup by Chaz Bajet.

HHSAA Division II BOYS BASKETBALL: Kailua Denies Castle En Route to Division II Title
www.SportsHigh.com
Playing for the sixth time this season, Oahu Interscholastic Association White Conference rivals Kailua and Castle finally got to claim Windward Side bragging rights once and for all.
The Surfriders rode Dylan Farias’ game-high 18 points to a 53-36 victory over the top-seeded and OIA White champion Knights in the championship game of the Hawaiian Airlines/HHSAA Boys Basketball Division II State Championships tonight at the Blaisdell Arena. Corey Lau and Kenny Ellis each chipped in 13 points for Kailua which avenged its loss to Castle in the OIA White title game last week.
The Surfriders (21-11) jumped out of the gate with a 7-0 run that forced Castle head coach Jeff Hiro to call timeout with nearly five minutes to play in the opening quarter. Lau’s three pointer and lay up early on bolstered the Kailua’s offensive attack.
After a Farias lay up, Lau kept his hot hand, and drained another trey to put Kailua up 12-0 midway through the first period. After Castle erased its goose egg on the scoreboard with two buckets, Lau found Farias with the clock winding down and the guard drained a three pointer to put the Surfriders up 17-4 after one quarter.

Kahuku wins on Akina’s 3
By Paul Honda
For once, the Kahuku Red Raiders turned the tables on their old friends from ‘Iolani.
Kahuku guard Nehoa Akina swished a 3-point bomb from the corner with 13 seconds to go, and center Kona Schwenke drew a charging foul from Pablo Warner with 3.8 seconds left as the second-seeded Red Raiders edged ‘Iolani 56-53 last night in the semifinals of the Hawaiian Airlines/HHSAA Boys Basketball Division I State Championships at Blaisdell Arena.
Kahuku (24-2), the Oahu Interscholastic Association champion, will take on top-seeded Kamehameha tonight in the final at Blaisdell.
Warner, who led ‘Iolani (22-6) with 17 points, disputed the charging call.
“I didn’t hit him that hard, so I don’t know why he fell down,” the 6-foot-3 senior said.
Akina’s shot was pivotal for a Kahuku squad that was clearly on the ropes.
“My dad said this is where we want to be,” Akina said of Kahuku coach Hiram Akina.

Red Raiders blow lead, but hold off ‘Iolani in 56-53 semifinal thriller
By Wes Nakama
Advertiser Staff Writer
In typical thrilling fashion capped by another frantic finish, Kahuku held off ‘Iolani, 56-53, last night to advance to today’s Hawaiian Airlines/Hawai’i High School Athletic Association Boys Basketball Championship game.
An energized crowd of 3,003 at Blaisdell Arena watched the Red Raiders blow an 11-point lead in the final four minutes, only to take it back on Nehoa Akina’s 3-pointer from the left corner with 13 seconds remaining. Kahuku then nervously held on as ‘Iolani failed to convert on its final two possessions.
The Red Raiders improved to 19-1 in the regular and postseason and will face Kamehameha (13-1) at 7 p.m. at Blaisdell for the title.
The game will be televised live statewide on OC16.
“We’re grateful to be able to stay in it through all of this,” said Akina, a 5-foot-8 junior who scored a game-high 19 points — including five 3s — last night. “Our first goal was to win the (O’ahu Interscholastic Association) East (Division), then our next goal was to win the OIA. Our last goal is to win states, and this is our last stop, we’re almost there.”

Kamehameha survives
By Jason Kaneshiro
Honolulu Star Bulletin
Getting there may have been the hardest part.
Kamehameha earned a shot at ending its state championship drought last night, but not before enduring four quarters and three overtime periods in a 63-57 victory over Kaimuki in an epic Hawaiian Airlines/HHSAA Division I boys basketball tournament semifinal last night at Blaisdell Arena.
The top-seeded Warriors will have to muster another burst of energy tonight after surviving a game that stretched 2 hours, 40 minutes and featured clutch shots on both sides, momentum swinging turnovers, injuries and even a bit of controversy.
Just how much the Warriors have left in the tank will be determined when they return to Blaisdell tonight in the program’s first championship game appearance since 1994.
“When it comes down to these kinds of games, adrenaline will take over,” Kamehameha coach Jesse Nakanishi said. “I’m not too worried about it. We’ll get them home right away, get some fluids and get some sleep.”
The Warriors — led by sophomore forward Micah Christenson’s 26 points — overcame a gritty performance by Kaimuki to advance to the final.

Christenson scores 26 as Warriors outlast Kaimuki in 3 OTs
By Kalani Takase
Advertiser Staff Writer
Top-ranked Kamehameha will seek its first boys basketball state title since 1992 after sophomore forward Micah Christenson scored a game-high 26 points to lead the Warriors to a 63-57 triple-overtime semifinal win over Kaimuki yesterday at Neal S. Blaisdell Arena.
Kamehameha, the tournament’s top seed, improved to 13-1 and will meet second-seeded Kahuku tonight in the Division I championship game.
Kaimuki, ranked fourth in The Advertiser’s Top 10 poll, fell to 15-6 and will play ‘Iolani for third.
Tonight’s championship final will be aired live statewide on OC-16 at 7 p.m.
“It’s been a while since being in (the title game),” Warriors coach Jesse Nakanishi said. “Our boys have worked so hard every day in practice, so I’m really proud that they’ll have this opportunity — just to play in the (championship) game is a thrill.”
