KAILUA-KONA — Kealakehe had every reason to fall apart in September.
The Waveriders opened the month by dropping a tight contest to Kamehameha— a fourth consecutive loss to start the season — which was punctuated by a highly-publicized confrontation between a parent and coach on the field.
But instead of falling apart in the face of adversity, Kealakehe rallied, with a 31-14 victory at Honokaa last weekend being the latest boon for the ‘Riders (3-4 overall, 3-2 BIIF D-I), making it three in a row for the squad.
The Waveriders will look to polish off the month with a homecoming victory over Waiakea on Saturday.
