Honoka‘a 3, Kanu 0
Honoka‘a girls volleyball made quick work of Kanu o ka ‘Aina during Tuesday’s Big Island Interscholastic Federation (BIIF) Division II matchup inside the Dragons’ gymnasium — winning in straight sets. The hosts got back on track after falling to Hawaii Preparatory Academy last week.
Honoka‘a won by scores of 25-7, 25-29 and 25-13. The Dragons improved to 6-7, staying in the middle of BIIF DII’s standings (as of late Wednesday afternoon, Oct. 9). Kanu dropped to 2-11, and sits near the cellar of the DII standings.
With just a few matches remaining in the regular season slate, Honoka‘a will next host DI powerhouse Konawaena at 5 p.m. Friday in Honoka‘a town. Junior varsity will play first at 5 p.m. The Dragons also hosted Makua Lani Christian Academy on their home floor late Wednesday night — see Friday’s paper to read results.
