RESULTS: 2008 State Championships

“Finish”. It’s the motto the team adopted last year, as we rallied to our first State Championship in 39 years. But it also describes well, the effort the Varsity Boys put in as the season came to a close. 11 semi-finalists, 12 medalists and 225.5 total points are all the highest totals ever in the […]

Media coverage of the 2008 State Tournament

One of the pleasant surprises (at least to me) was the amount of media coverage at the state tournament this year. I think it helps that the definition of "media" has expanded quite a bit just in the past few years. We’re no longer limited to just the TV stations and the printed newspaper. Kudos […]

2008 ILH Championships

Overall, we put in a solid performance yesterday, sweeping the ILH Team Championship for the Boys and placing a respectable third for the Girls. It’s the second time in as many years that the Boys have won the ILH Championship at all three levels (INT, JV and VARS). JV put in the standout performance yesterday, […]

RESULTS: February 16 – Punahou sweeps ILH Dual Tournament

We wrestled well at all levels yesterday, sweeping the ILH Dual Meet Tournament. The Girls wrestled particularly well, upsetting defending ILH champs Iolani to win the tournament. JV bounced back from a poor performance last week to beat Damien and Kamehameha. And Varsity continued to roll, beating Kamehameha in the finals and finishing the regular […]

RESULTS: February 9th Duals

We wrapped up the dual meet portion of our ILH season with a solid (though not outstanding) performance. Girls wrestled well but went 1 – 1, beating Pac-5 and losing a close one to Kamehameha. At JV, we struggled and Iolani wrestled well. We wrestled 11 (of 14) matches, with 3 forfeits. Just counting the […]

RESULTS: February 2nd Duals

The distractions of the week have always made our duals on carnival weekend difficult. This week was no exception. JV wrestled poorly against a very scrappy Kamehameha squad and dropped their first dual meet of the season, 30 – 31. The girls didn’t do too poorly, though missed an opportunity to step up against defending […]

RESULTS: January 26 Duals

Distractions outside the wrestling room (e.g. Carnival) led to a lackluster week of practice and a very flat performance this weekend at all levels. Fortunately for us, we wrestled teams with a lot of holes in their lineups and were able to come away with victories. With only five weeks left in the season, we […]

ILH Dual Meet Tournament – Day 2

Varsity wrestled much better today and the JV put in a solid performance as we wrapped up the ILH Dual Meet Tournament. JV struggled in a few matches, but handily won their duals. And for the second time in as many years, the Varsity beat all the other ILH teams in a 24 hour period. […]
