Bubu Kawelu • baseball
Kawelu had four hits, two for extra bases, during the first four games of the PONY League 13s World Series.
Then came an explosion.
On the final day of the tournament, Kawelu ripped three extra base-hits to help get Hilo to the title game, and he partook in a memorable jaunt around the bases in the biggest moment of the final as four runs scored on his hit and an error.
