Konawaena High School's Announcements| Top running backs in the State.John Kamoku, Konawaena: Possibly the best breakaway threat in the state. I saw him stand in the pistol last year when he was at Kealakehe, and his breakaway touchdown run against a fast Leilehua defense blew me away. At Konawaena, he has bounced back from an early elbow injury and gradually finding his niche in an explosive attack that already features a prolific passer and two superb receivers. Kamoku had 12 carries for 53 yards and two touchdowns rushing against Honokaa, and two catches for 79 yards for two more scores. His stats to date: 23-207-6, or 9 yards per attempt | | Top Receiversin the state.. Two wildcats make the list.Domonic Morris, Konawaena: The numbers are large, even though he’s just one cog in the Wildcats’ prolific passing attack. He had three grabs for 76 yards with a touchdown against Honokaa. To date: 14-297-5, 21.2 yards per reception. Kenan Gaspar, Konawaena: The junior had three hauls for 111 yards and a touchdown against Honokaa. To date: 13-326-4, an average of 25.1 yards per catch. | | Kahoali‘i Karratti, Konawaena: The junior became the first 1,000-yard passer of the season after lighting up Honokaa for 381 yards and four touchdowns (17-for-28, one pick). He now ha 13 touchdown passes with just two picks to go with 1,008 passing yards and a whopping YPA of 10.4. His passer rating of 179.97 leads the state. Arguments against a Division II quarterback can be sketchy or good. But the bar was set in week 1 when he lost elite running back John Kamoku (elbow) early and still passed for 217 yards and two touchdowns in a 43-40 loss to ‘Iolani. Karratti may leave games early, as he did in a lopsided win over Hilo (9-17-0-140, three touchdowns) or get more than 25 passes off (Maui, Honokaa). Nobody up “mauka” has been this prolific since Lance Kobayashi and Aaron Sumida (3,000-plus yards as a senior) were the QBs. |
