[grindz]

Punahou just demolished Iolani at home ...or so I heard

[HRC Paul]

Yep, that's what I hear, too. Brian McInnis has the story in tomorrow's Star-Bulletin.

[hssportsfan]

Well i guess you were right Paul...Punahou showed there #1 with a 70 to 49 victory over Iolani...I've never seen anyone do that to Iolani before...they didnt know what to do!!!!!

[HRC Paul]

Man, I would never have expected a rout. I heard Punahou was hot from the 3-point line, which is unusual. I wouldn't expect them to be hot from the arc again if they were to play again. Most times, it'll be a tight, tight game between these two teams.

Punahou's best 3-point shooter is also their best post scorer, Kameron Steinhoff. I'll be interested to read the story in the morning and see who hit the treys.

[hssportsfan]

It was just the Hilliard, Crabb, Cassidy and Toma were actually shooting...and as a whole they were playing with emotion

[FIVE-O]

WOW! my Red Raiders stilll in da top 10! right on Paul i'm starting to agree with you more and more now dayz ! jus jokin!
