In lieu of BIIF semifinals this season, Kamehameha and Konawaena get a chance at a dry run before the finals.
The Week 7 showdown between the two teams that have combined to win the last six Division II titles has been marked on calenders since the schedule was released. The Warriors and Wildcats are assured spots opposite each other in the championship game in two weeks, but first they meet at 8 p.m. Saturday night in Kealakekua to settle home field.
That dynamic has led at least a few people to ask Konawaena coach Brad Uemoto whether he intends to hold any aspect of his high-octane offense back and save it for the rematch.
