The OIA’s top two teams were too much for the BIIF’s top two schools at the HHSAA Division I tournament on Thursday on Oahu.
Kahuku, the OIA runner-up, beat Hilo, the BIIF champion, 25-12, 25-23, 25-19, and OIA champion Mililani defeated Kamehameha-Hawaii, the BIIF runner-up, 25-20, 25-23, 23-25, 25-17 in the quarterfinals.
