ILH Championships

This past Saturday saw every Punahou wrestler competing for their respective ILH Championship.  The intermediate team had a frustrating start, losing several matches in the last few seconds by giving up a big move…they were able to rebound slightly and finish the tournament tied for first with Kamehameha.  We expect there will be several good [...]

ILH Week 3 Wrap Up

The boys and girls varsity teams finished the ILH dual meet regular season on Friday.  The girls wrestled relatively well again and defeated both Kamehameha and Pac-5.  The boys wrestled only Pac-5 and again finished with a win.  Of note, Pac-5 has a few extremely solid wrestlers in each line-up, and unfortunately we did not [...]

Solid Improvement for ILH Week 2

The girls team wrestled much better this past weekend and beat Kamehameha and Iolani, who both were missing a few girls from their lineup.

Punahou Repeats as both Boys & Girls State Champions

In a performance that truly defines the concept of “team”, our wrestlers pulled together and delivered a series of incredible matches to repeat as both Boys & Girls State Champions. All season long, the coaches emphasized the wisdom of Joe Paterno, when he said “Take care of the little things and the big things will [...]

The Boys started with wins Friday [...]

Jan 15 Duals – A Solid Performance

We put in a solid performance in our Friday night duals, wrestling much better than we did on Tuesday. The Girls kicked off the night with a strong outing against Pac-5. Due to forfeits on both sides, we only wrestled head-to-head in six matches and won all by pin. The Boys wrestled much better than [...]

2010 ILH Season Begins!

We opened our 2010 campaign with the boys wrestling St. Louis and the girls wrestling Kamehameha. Overall, a solid, if sluggish, performance and we were able to come away with victories at the varsity level. We wrestled upstairs in our wrestling room, which is a great venue since the fans are right there on matside. [...]
