Football Preview: Mililani Trojans vs. Liberty Patriots
The Mililani Trojans will venture away from home to take on the Liberty Patriots at 7:30 p.m. on Saturday. Mililani will be strutting in after a win while Liberty will be coming in after a defeat.
Mililani is headed into the matchup with an undefeated record on the line, something St. Louis almost spoiled last Saturday. Mililani skirted past St. Louis 16-14.
Meanwhile, Liberty couldn't capitalize on their home-field advantage in their season opener. They received a blow on Friday as they fell 41-26 to Skyridge.
Despite their loss, Liberty saw several players rise to the challenge and make noteworthy plays. Elijah Espinoza, who threw for 147 yards and a touchdown, and also rushed for 70 yards on only nine carries, was perhaps the best of all. Ezra Sanelivi was in the mix too, providing Liberty with two rushing touchdowns touchdowns.
Mililani beat Liberty 34-22 in their previous matchup back in August of 2019. The rematch might be a little tougher for Mililani since the squad won't have the home-field advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
