For the Hilo High senior, it was always a matter of when, not it, he would be honored in this space.
Jarneski is used to pitching on big stages, and it showed Friday as the right-hander fired a three-hitter to hand Waiakea its first loss.
A day later, Jarneski – a former Hilo PONY World Series hero – manned second base as the Vikings completed a two-game sweep for their second BIIF Division I title in three seasons.
