BIIF Division I softball championship series: Waiakea rides big fifth to Game 1 victory

Halee Sweat, Kelsie Imai, and Johnacy Mackwelung have all been asked the same question in interviews this season, and it’s one they’ve each had a hard time answering.

What new aspect do the three freshmen bring to Waiakea’s veteran-laden softball team?

Perhaps it’s a dumb question or perhaps all three are too modest, because deep into the postseason the answer is becoming crystal clear: All three are irreplaceable for the Warriors.

Don’t draw any conclusions from the 10-0 final score Friday against Kealakehe in Game 1 of the BIIF Division I championship series at the Warriors’ field.
