BIIF football: Honokaa savors season-ending, 2OT victory at Waiakea

Honokaa really needed to end its season on a good note, and for one chief Dragon it felt like a Super Bowl victory.

The Dragons kept climbing uphill and defeated the Warriors 28-27 in double-overtime in a BIIF football game on Saturday at Ken Yamase Memorial Stadium.

Honokaa (3-4 BIIF Division II, 4-4 overall) won in the second OT when linebacker Sheltyn Carvalho led a stampede of tacklers and stuffed Gehrig Octavio’s two-point run attempt.

The Dragons finished with a one-game record jump in league play from a year ago, but, more importantly, they closed their season feeling good about themselves, erasing the memory of a four-game skid.
