Kingston Keanaaina Turns in Season-Best Effort
Saint Francis was led to victory by Kingston Keanaaina, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Friday. Keanaaina rushed for 323 yards and three touchdowns while picking up 9.5 yards per carry. He really tore up the turf during one magnificent 76-yard run.
The win (which was Saint Francis' third in a row) raised their record to 5-1. Keanaaina and Saint Francis will square off against St. Ignatius College Preparatory at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.

Legend Williams Delivers Best Performance of Season
Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory was led to victory by Legend Williams, who turned in his biggest game of the season on Saturday. Williams rushed for 158 yards and two touchdowns. The effort marked the most rushing yards he has had since back in September of 2023. He is becoming a predictor of Sacred Heart Cathedral Preparatory's success: when he posts at least two rushing touchdowns the team is undefeated (and 0-3 when he doesn't).
Archbishop Mitty had to have seen this coming; the last time they saw Williams it was a similar story. Back in September of 2023 (the last time Williams saw the Monarchs), he rushed for 167 yards and a touchdown while picking up 7.6 yards per carry.

Jarious Hogan Goes Supernova in St. Ignatius College Preparatory Win

For the year, Hogan has run in 8 touchdowns while averaging 88.7 rushing yards per game.
Gamescore: 32.00
While Kai Sniffen delivered a dominant performance on Saturday, a win just wasn't in the cards for Archbishop Mitty. Sniffen turned in nothing short of a gem, picking up 21 receiving yards.
Archbishop Mitty is on a three-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-3. Sniffen and Archbishop Mitty will take on Junipero Serra at 1:30 p.m. on Saturday.
