Kealakehe’s undefeated BIIF streak is still intact, but just barely after playing Hawaii Preparatory Academy to a 1-1 tie at Waverider Stadium on Tuesday.
Kealakehe (5-0-1) to push its streak to 50-0-3 in the intense, physical battle, but both coaches walked away feeling their teams could have performed better.
“Our boys never found the rhythm and HPA really took it to us the first half,” said Kealakehe coach Urs Leuenberger. “I am always worried when we don’t play well off the bat and we were definitely not the better team tonight.”
Hawaii Prep (3-0-1) coach Richard Braithwaite said his team did not do what they set out to do offensively from the start, despite taking an early 1-0 advantage.
