Friday Night Lights at Kahuku

We drove to Kahuku High School last night to watch St. Louis play Kahuku in an Interleague game.

It was a great high school football atmosphere. The estimate of the attendance was 4500 and there was a good representation of Crusader fans among that number.


Ryan was really excited about the game because it was a matchup featuring the #2 ranked Saints travelling for the first time up to the North Shore to face the top-ranked Red Raiders.

The game started off great for St. Louis with a touchdown on the second play.

The entire first half was terrific but too many mistakes in the second half doomed the Crusaders as the Red Raiders prevailed, 49-27.

Football is back

Ryan has moved up to coaching at the Varsity level at St.Louis this season. He's working with the Tight Ends, the position he played in college. He's real happy and excited; it's the first time the Crusaders have used a TE on a regular basis since the 80's.

They have a big game at Kahuku this Friday. It'll be #1 versus #2 in the State for an early season showdown. WooHoo!

Brent started his third football camp at Linfield last Wednesday.

He started off great in testing and looked to be having a great camp. He's wearing #54 in purple. Here's some video from wildcat11: (he shows up at 0:14, 1:42 and 2:09)


He called last night and said that he strained his left foot yesterday so he'll sit out and rest it for a while. Hopefully, it will heal quickly. He was really looking forward to this season and worked hard this past summer getting ready.

But more importantly, we did find some great news! Brent got a "B" in Chem 162! And his 161 grade got upped to a C+ so it was a successful summer for him!
