Konawaena seniors Chanelle Molina and Ihi Victor leave behind quite a legacy on two floors of a basketball Empire State Building.
Under their watch, the Wildcats have won four BIIF Division I titles, increasing the program’s league record winning streak to 92-0.
Kona also captured consecutive HHSAA state championships and finished runner-up in 2013 to Kamehameha-Kapalama, suffering a 45-39 overtime loss.
On Friday, Molina was her brilliant self, scoring 24 points on 8 of 11 shooting, as the No. 1 seed Wildcats defeated No. 3 Maryknoll 44-34 for the state title.
It wasn’t surprising that all five starters — Molina and her sisters Celena and Cherilyn, Victor, and Mikayla Tablit — played the entire game, all 32 minutes.
