Kiai Apele • basketball
The Waiakea junior was a hero two years ago in the BIIF boys Division I basketball championship game with a late steal and go-ahead layup , but he outdid himself last week.
In the first Hilo-Waiakea final since 2010, Apele’s production would make his favorite player proud.
Apele’s triple-double (21 points, 11 rebounds, 10 assists) carried the Warriors to their third crown in four years.
