KAILUA-KONA — Pulama Louis has faced worse odds than a coin flip during his high school career, so the two-time BIIF champion wrestler wasn’t too worried when the No. 1 seed in his 182-pound weight class at the HHSAA tournament came down to heads or tails.

Louis won the toss, and will be the Big Island’s lone top seed at the tourney, but being at the top of the bracket hasen’t changed his mindset as he seeks to become Kealakehe’s first gold-winner on the state stage since 2008.
