A matchup at Aloha Stadium between the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the latest newspaper state rankings. This will be the 20th time these teams have met since 2004, and a win for top-ranked Punahou would even its record against the Warriors to 10-10. Hawaii-committed quarterback
Larry Tuileta has completed better than 62 percent of his passes for 628 yards and five touchdowns, helping the Buff n' Blue start the year with three straight wins. It's barely mid-September, but Kamehameha (5-0) has only three regular-season games left after this weekend. It already has wins in the bank against state-ranked St. Louis and ‘Iolani.
Just the facts: In addition to the NFL Pro Bowl and University of Hawaii home games, Aloha Stadium plays host to dozens of high school, junior high and Pop Warner contests each year. … Kamehameha's most famous alum is arguably Hawaiian music icon Don Ho. For Punahou, without argument, it's President Barack Obama.
