Kamehameha 45, Waiakea 20
Casey Poe scored 13 points, Riana Arima added 11 and Caitlin Poe had nine as host Kamehameha held Waiakea scoreless in the first quarter and never let up defensively to improve to 2-0.
“We blocked out well and only gave Waiakea one opportunity each time,” Kamehameha coach Garrett Arima said. “Waiakea didn’t shoot that well and we kept up our intensity the entire game. Good man-to-man defense, and we switched some things.”
Shaila Apele led Waiakea (0-2) with seven points, and Kaydee Rapozo had six.
