Re: 2012 High School Cross Country

Early season impressions is that there are three remarkable freshmen girls in the ILH. It's also nice that they all go to different schools.

It'll be fun watching them compete against each other for the next four years!

Re: 2012 High School Cross Country

Does anyone have any information about who is going to be DII this year? I'm also curious about which teams are going to be running at HPA, Sept. 29th. The Punahou Invitational is also that weekend. The HPA course is brutal not just because you have to run up that big hill twice but the course is at...

Re: BREAKING NEWS: CAM NEWTON IS CLEAN ACCORDING TO NCAA

Regardless of the outcome of the upcoming BCS championship game Oregon will be declared the National Champion for this year.

If they lose the game the NCAA will eventually declare Auburn ineligible!

If something smells in Denmark...

Re: 2010 Cross Country

^^^ Yes, that's what I meant. I thought that there would be a higher number than there was. The girls senior class this year only had Tialana Greenwell trying for a state medal in all four years of her being eligible. I think she was struggling through a bunch of injuries and still didn't miss by mu...

Re: 2010 Cross Country

I was looking at past records of races and was suprised at how few kids medal every year. So, I went back and looked at the last four years to see, by class, how many kids there were: Girls: Seniors: None Juniors: Mann - Pun Sophmores: Brady - Pun Evans - HPA Freshmen: Grossman - Sea Van Pernis - HP...

Re: Official Guess the Score Contest: Hawaii @ BSU w/prize

BSU: 31
UH: 14

I hope I'm wrong but BSU has a bye week to prepare for this game and I think they won't let the U of H dash their hopes for a national championship.

I hope I lose... I hope I lose... I hope I lose... :)

Re: 2010 Cross Country

Hats off to Dakota Grossman for winning. Props to Elli Brady for running her race, like last year, but the leader didn't falter this time. I think the most improved award goes to Heidi Nichols! As a freshman she was 53rd; sophmore, 52nd; junior, 26th; and as a senior she worked herself to a 3rd plac...

Re: What are some soccer drills

Juggle, juggle, juggle... An elite player can juggle the ball 1000 times in ten minutes. The trick is not to have the ball touch the ground as much as possible. Also, try to use your feet as much as possible because you aren't going to be scoring a whole lot with the top of your thigh... If you are ...

Re: 2010 Cross Country

Did anyone else notice that seven of the top ten projected finalist are from Punahou? If that happens that would be absolutely amazing!!!

BTW, I will go out on a limb and say that the Punahou girls team might win the state championship! :wink:

Re: 2010 Cross Country

Defending state champion Elli Brady did not race. Anyone know why? Injury? Needed time off? Holding off on racing in expectation of a long season? My daughter, who's played club soccer and ran against her last year in XC, saw Ellie with the Punahou band so there might have been a schedule conflict ...
