Kamehameha Hawaii takes down Damien, 12-1 for first DII State crown since 2016
HONOLULU (HawaiiNewsNow) – The Koa Head Trophy returns to the Big Island.
Kamehameha Hawaii are the 2024 HHSAA Division II State Champions after a whopping 12-1 rout of Damien Saturday morning at Moanalua High School.
It was a high flying affair from the start as the Warriors put up nine runs in the first inning alone.
The Warriors captures its second State Championship in program history.
We just needed to adjust to the weather to where we’re playing and who we’re playing against,” Warriors pitcher Shiloh Santos said. “The rain wasn’t much of an issue for us because, you know, out in Hilo it’s raining, it’s raining a lot.”
Pitcher Shiloh Santos tossed a full five innings allowing four hits, one run and one strike out on 78 pitches.
We wanted it, we wanted it for Hilo, we want it for our school, we want it for our families, we want it for each other and that’s really important to us.”
Kamehameha Hawaii ends the season with a 16-1 record.
