No. 6 Farrington storms past No. 9 Kapolei
By Paul Honda
Honolulu Starbulletin
The Farrington Governors didn’t just rain on the Kapolei Hurricanes.
They stormed.
Isiah Iuta returned a fumble 35 yards for a touchdown and hauled in a 36-yard Hail Mary on the final play of the first half as sixth-ranked Farrington ousted No. 9 Kapolei 37-20 last night.
Farrington (7-2), the second seed from the Red East, will face Leilehua next week in the Oahu Interscholastic Association Red Conference playoffs. Apelu So’oalo, inspired by the presence of his father, rushed for 119 yards, despite a nagging shoulder injury.
“I want to say thanks to my dad for coming from (American) Samoa for the game,” So’oalo said of Filemu So’oalo. The senior running back moved to Hawaii a year ago and converted from linebacker to running back. He was near tears after receiving leis from his family after the game, but his prowess and the big production of Farrington’s offensive line gave the Hurricanes a dose of misery most of the night.
Farrington amassed 338 total yards, including 202 on the ground (5 yards per carry) behind the front five of Justin Momesea, Lindon Kahana, Paul Kama, Skylawn Folaumahina and Joe Siliga.

Farrington frustrates Kapolei
By Michael Tsai
Honolulu Advertiser
From the car wreck of fumbles, penalties and, well, more fumbles and penalties, Farrington made the most of a bevy of unexpected opportunities to advance past Kapolei, 37-20, in the Oahu Interscholastic Association Red Conference playoffs last night at Roosevelt.
Rallying behind a balanced attack of running back Apelu So’oalo, quarterback Dayton Kealoha, and receivers Drake Miller and Ani Isumu, Farrington took advantage of a Kapolei squad that frequently looked disoriented by its snowballing tallies of penalties — including several for having too many players on the field and for delay of game.
The Hurricanes started off impressively enough, repeatedly going to their running backs in a 74-yard opening drive capped by Simione Vehikite’s 1-yard touchdown run.
The Kapolei defense also showed well in its first series, stopping the Farrington run and eventually forcing and recovering a fumble by Isumu.
