Kamehameha has come to expect big efforts from senior Nalu Kahapea, and going forward the same might be said of freshman Koby Tabuyo-Kahele.

Both players came up big Saturday as the Warriors survived a game effort from Hawaii Prep to remain undefeated. Kahapea scored 18 points and Tabuyo-Kahele added 14 as Kamehameha broke open a BIIF boys basketball game that was tied after three quarters at Koaia Gym in Keaau to win 62-49 and improve to 5-0 heading into its game at Hilo on Tuesday.

“I think we were more patient in our half-court sets and we limited them to one contested shot,” coach Mea Wong said.
