BIIF baseball: Waiakea’s unrivaled execution trumps beat Hilo

Waiakea played another round of disciplined ball against Hilo in the second meeting of the annual crosstown diamond rivalry, sweeping the three key categories of hitting, pitching and defense.

Again, the Warrior played a cleaner brand of baseball and defeated the Vikings 8-1 in a BIIF Division I showdown Wednesday night at Wong Stadium.

Waiakea senior right-hander Makoa Andres survived a shaky first inning and finished with a two-hitter. He allowed a run, walked two, hit a batter, and whiffed five on 104 pitches.

“In the first inning, I was rushing my motion and getting ahead of myself too much,” Andres said.
