Kingston Keanaaina Delivers Electric Performance Vs St. Ignatius College Preparatory
Starting off the list is Saint Francis's Kingston Keanaaina, who we judged to be the best player in the league this week. Keanaaina rushed for 212 yards and two touchdowns. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 80-yard run.
If the past is any indication, Keanaaina could be in store for another big game when he takes on Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory on Friday. Keanaaina rushed for 249 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 10.4 yards per carry the last time he and the Fightin' Irish duked it out back in October of 2023.
