After claiming three straight BIIF championships and reaching the state playoffs six consecutive years, Konawaena’s volleyball team may finally be looking at a rebuilding season.
The Wildcats return only three starters from last year’s squad after losing 10 girls after last season and eight the season before.
“This is a very new team,” said Konawaena head coach Ainsley Keawekane. “They are going through a learning process and getting to understand what we do as coaches. We don’t run anything fancy, we just play volleyball.”
The biggest loss from last year’s squad is 5-foot-9 setter Celena Molina, who is now playing basketball at Washington State.
