Sports
open up with Maui.
Last year, the Sabers
rumbled past the visit-
ing ‘Riders 28-7 behind
nearly 300 rushing
yards and throwing just
two passes. But this time
around, things are dif-
ferent. Kealakehe is at
home and Maui could
look a bit different under
new head coach Keith
Shirota. Former head
coach David Bui stepped
down after four seasons
in February.
“We know they are a
good team. We found
that out quickly last year,”
Kealakehe head coach
Sam Kekuaokalani said.
“They had a really solid
running game. We don’t
know about this year yet,
but we will see.”
The Waveriders have
a solid stable of ball car-
riers that includes Ini
Paio, Kobe Antolin and
Riggs Kurashige, but are
looking for consistency
at quarterback. Markus
Degrate — the part-time
starter last year — is in
the running for the start-
ing gig, but is currently
in a too-close-to-call
race with sophomore
Anthony Trevino. It is
unknown who will get
the majority of snaps on
Saturday.
Kealakehe also has a
matchup against Iolani
on Aug. 15. The Raiders
have won seven of the
last eight Division II
state titles, but made the
move to Division I this
season.
The
Waveriders
close out the preseason
against visiting Canada
squad Vincent MP on
Aug. 22.
Rockets jumping out to
a 5-2 lead in the first
inning off six hits, five
singles and a double by
Dave Waters.
After scoring a run in
the second inning, Kona
Gold fought back to take
the lead in the third,
thanks to three walks to
open the inning. Bruce
Boone and Ray Peterson
picked up a pair of sin-
gles to score the runs.
Kona Gold led 6-5.
Honomu tied the
game in the fourth when
Billy DeMello doubled
and scored on a single by
Joey Estrella.
The game continued
to go back and forth as
both teams pushed two
more runners across the
plate.
In the bottom of the
sixth inning, and with
the game tied at 8-8,
Jack McMenimen and
Rob Reshan reached
base on a pair of one-out
singles. Fred Costanzo
then stepped up to the
plate and knocked in
both runners with a dou-
ble. The runs would hold
in the seventh, giving
Kona Gold their third
straight title.
“I don’t know if anyone
has every won three in
a row in the past, but
to be over 60 and win
three straight state titles
is good,” Fitzgerald said.
“We will take every char-
itable moment we can,
first winning on Oahu,
then Maui, and now at
home.”

Bridgestone
Invitational
AKRON, Ohio — Danny
Lee made seven birdies
for a 5-under 65 for a
one-shot lead Thursday
in his first time at the
Bridgestone Invitational
in six years.
Lee had a one-shot lead
over Graeme McDowell
and Jim Furyk.
The major champion-
ship pairing of Jordan
Spieth (Masters and U.S.
Open) and Zach Johnson
(British Open) produced
two rounds of even-par
70. Some of that was rust
from being off the last
two weeks. Most of that
was Firestone.
The South Course fea-
tured fast fairways and
firm greens, along with
lush grass in the rough.
Only 21 players in the
77-man field managed to
break par. Phil Mickelson
wasn’t among them.
Spieth walked off the
third green relieved that
he cleared the water and
made par. Mickelson was
behind him and not so
lucky. He clipped branch-
es and went in the middle
of the pond for a triple
bogey. He shot 76.
Jim Furyk might get
another chance to win
a tournament he should
have three years ago,
when he went wire-to-
wire until making a dou-
ble bogey from the middle
of the 18th fairway in the
final round and lost by
one. Furyk opened with a
66 to join McDowell one
shot out of the lead.
Rickie
Fowler
and
Justin Rose were at 67,
while the large group
at 68 included Henrik
Stenson, Ian Poulter and
Lee Westwood.
BARRACUDA
CHAMPIONSHIP
RENO, Nev. — Zack
Sucher took the first-
round
lead
in
the
BarracudaChampionship,
scoring 18 points in the
PGA Tour’s only modified
Stableford event.
Sucher had nine bird-
ies in his bogey-free
round at Montreux Golf
and Country Club for a
three-point lead over
Patrick Rodgers. Under
the modified Stableford
format, players receive 8
points for double eagle,
5 for eagle, 2 for birdie, 0
for par, minus-1 for bogey
and minus-3 for double
bogey or worse.
Sucher has made only
four cuts in 16 starts in
his first season on the
PGA Tour. The 28-year-
old former Alabama-
Birmingham player won
the
Web.com
Tour’s
Midwest Classic last year.
JUNIOR PGA
CHAMPIONSHIP
BRYAN, Texas — Brad
Dalke and Elizabeth Wang
won playoffs in the Junior
PGA Championship at
Miramont Country Club.
The 17-year-old Dalke,
from Hobart, Oklahoma,
beat Wilson Furr of
Jackson, Mississippi, with
a birdie on the second
extra hole. Dalke and Furr
finished at 6-under 278,
with Dalke bogeying the
final two holes in regula-
tion for a 4-over 75, and
Furr shooting a 67.
The
15-year-old
Wang, from San Marino,
California, beat Mariel
Galdiano of Pearl City,
Hawaii, with a 2-foot
birdie putt on the first
extra hole. Wang closed
with a 73, and Galdiano
had a 72 to finish at 2
under. Galdiano won
the Canadian Women’s
Amateur last week.
Dalke earned a spot
next year in the PGA
Tour’s Valero Texas Open,
and Wang received an
exemption to the LPGA
Tour’s Swinging Skirts
LPGA Classic.
