KAPA‘A — Kelii Koa Baclayon had a marathon day along with several other players Saturday.

Baclayon, playing two games with Hanakila in the 13 and Under division, played up and joined the ranks of Kapa‘a in his third game on an 8-game schedule for the 3 G’s Nation competitive basketball league at the Kapa‘a High School gym.

After dropping two games with Hanakila, including a 39-36 loss to the Gee Unit in overtime, and a 34-35 loss to Lihu‘e in the 13 Under division, the tiny guard was able to post 5 points in Kapa‘a’s 57-23 win over Waimea in the 15 Under boys game.

Lansen Eto exploded for 5 points, including a bomb from outside the 3-point arc in overtime to lead the Gee Unit to its 3-point victory.


Eto finished that matchup with 11 points, combining with Donovan Harrison’s 16 points for the win.

Baclayon and James Stevens each netted 6 points to combine with Marlon Cudiamat’s 9 points in the Hanakila effort.

In the second 13 Under match, Baclayon, Cudiamat, Stevens, Kauan Walog, Cy Whitlock, Angelito Raza and Justin Apilado were each held to just a pair each by the Lihu‘e defense. Morgan Childs took the lead for Hanakila with 7 points in that effort.

Lihu‘e’s Kerwin Morano led the win with 15 points followed by Kameron Perez with 7 points, Mark Acoba adding 6 points and Wheeler Batol finishing with 4 points.

Moving to the 15 Under division, Baclayon finished with 5 points against the Waimea squad who was held to just 4 points until the final three minutes of the first half.

Andrew Panoke and Duke Pauli each netted 14 points to lead the Kapa‘a victory with Kainoa Colipano and Kapono Cummings each adding 9 points. Spam Lindsey finished with 6 points.


Branden Palacio, Chase Parongao, Kaili Lagundino were each held to just 4 points with P.J. Oligo taking the lead on 5 points. Ariel Lahip finished with 3 points and Mana Jose had a pair for Waimea.

Lihu‘e completed a two-game sweep in the 13 Under division as Morano paced the team coached by Kaleo Perez with 16 points in its 46-25 win over Westside. He was followed by Kameron Perez adding a dozen marks with Acoba adding 8 points. Kellen Aquino and Micah Hanano finished with 4 points each and Wheeler Batol had a pair.

Dillon Balisacan paced the Westside effort with 1 point followed by Briggs Agu adding 8 points, Christian Garma netting 4 points and Chavis Garma finishing with a pair.

Westside dropped its second game, 38-22 against the quick Papalina team with Chavis Garma leading the Westside effort with 10 points in that game. Darin Fernandez added 7 points and Dylan Balisacan finished with 4 points.

Trey Aguano led the Papalina blueshirts with a game-high 13 points followed by Vaughn Thompson and Kelson Andrade each netting 7 points. Kalawaia Judd and Kainoa Simao finished with 6 and 5 points, respectively.

On the girls’ arena, Mahea Hanie-Grace also did double-duty in the Gee’s Angels dual win, a 53-8 showing over Kaulupono White in the 13 Under division followed by a 61-14 showing over the Kamikaze in a 15 Under match.

Hanie-Grace burned the twine in both games, netting a game-high 29 points against the Kamikaze and adding 6 points against Kaulupono White.

Against the Kaulupono White, Lauren Claypoole, another Angel playing up, led the effort with 13 points and was held to just 6 points against the Kamikaze.

Raquelle Matayoshi was another Angel playing up and finished with 6 points against Kaulupono and held to just a digit against the Kamikaze.

Aside from the dual-role Angels, Riana Ralston and Reggie McCabe each had 8 points, Brooke Nawai-Nakamura finished with 4 points along with Lele Hanie. Joy Claypoole, Lauren’s younger sister, and Pi‘ilani Chandler each netted a pair.

Kaulupono White was led by Casey Anacleto’s 4 points and pairs from Tianalee Apilado and Nicole Palacio.

Kelsey Cadiente scored all 14 points for the Kamikaze in the 15 Under contest.

Bristy Agu, nursing a wrapped wrist last week, undid the bandage to combine with Erin Connelly for 11 points each to lead Waimea to a 42-14 win over Island Heat in a 15 Under girls matchup. Charlyn Ortiz followed with 7 points and Paige Connelly, Erin’s younger sister, added 6 points.

Jennifer Grady topped the Island Heat scoring on 9 points followed by Shelley Tottori and Meghan Fujimoto each netting a pair.

There are no scheduled games for this entire week in the 3 G’s Nation league as two teams coached by Cecil Gee take off for a tournament on Maui while other teams take care of summer vacation business.

" Hello again TGI,

It has been awhile since I've commented about your articles on world news or Kauai news. Looking at this article and news in economics around the world, I would like to say to Kauai and Waimea High School, so what Jordon Dizon went 0-16 for the Detroit Lions 2008 season. Today is 1/22/2009 waiting for the superbowl XLIII to kick off 2/1/2009 sunday. Just look on the bright side of this news, at least a lot of other athletes like Aaron Francisco of Kahuku high school beat out Jordon Dizon to fame and popularity around the world. Now playing for the Arizona Cardinals. Think of it, exposure to Waimea High School from Jordon Dizon? Hey, at least others beat him there also right on fame and popularity for the island of Kauai, like Bernard Carvalho of Kapaa High School former football player in High School, now mayor as seen at the recent Barak Obama's inaugeration in Washington DC, trying to represent jobless people on Kauai, right?

Thank you for hearing me.

Sincerely,
Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Dear TGI,

RE: Date, 01-22-2009

Just letting you know all my comments on TGI is/was centered around community issues regarding my former high school and mainly who we knew in that town. Any news thereafter arising out of such personal activities beyond the foresight of Waimea High School or the DOE, meaning in the real labor market, was brought forth due to family issues, community issues, people we have or grown to know over the years, and basically experiences in this life, anywhere usa.

Any comments made by myself reflects viewpoints and objective ideas about living in United States of America, Hawaii and not necessarily accomplishments to try to belittle anyone not agreeing or being in the same frame of thought or deed for any matter, if you catch any of it. Example, like trying to be a mayor and use the outer island relatives or relatives as advertising scheme.

We live somewhere else, and do not necessarily subscribe to the idea of home rule or representation rule in terms of residence or job. I live on another island for a long time with few relatives here in Honolulu. The view points does not represent Waimea High School even though I may have gone to school there or grew up there, or even had jobs on Kauai.

In short, I do not subscribe to the idea, that Waimea High School is where everything started, if you get my sentiments implied here. Point blank, I am not with any of my former school mates 1986 or anyone living there, in this life and in terms of what they do or think about anything in this economy and democratic process or free enterprise system wel live in, Hawaii.

Thank you and sincerely,

Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Hi again,

Returning customer,

Crying already or not? Regardless I may still not be with you. Think about that one!
I'm hopefull I am talking about jobs or family or community here. I am being rediculous,
but professors are the most craziest here. I actually do not need anyone's permission to write.

but sincerely,

Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Hi Kauai again,

Did not know I was listed under the alumni status of Waimea High School on that website? Or that I was writing about a strange football player like Jordon Dizon who needs popular votes to graduate at Waimea and Colorado?

Hey! I am the biggest loser here being associated with a guy name Jordon Dizon from Waimea High School. Think about that one?


Sincerely,

Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Hello again TGI,

I wrote a letter personally to Waimea High School inquiring about the status of enrollment at that school considering geographics and population number in resident in that area and that it has not really changed that much or been an important factor in deciding who graduates there. It seems to me that if you play sports, and enroll at that school, most likely HHSAA will supercede all academic work done at that school assuming you did play sports in high school or you did not.

What a tragic story, but I guess, the real story is, is this island getting any better in terms of graduation and jobs being found on your island, Kauai? Economics and politics would show that strong party politics in town prevail and no one in our class got full time jobs in that town.

just a thought here also!

Sincerely,


Dean Kelly Sabado "

" by the way... the only reason why waimea won is because they played dirty. they called the balls out when they were actually in the court, and there was nothing else we could do about it. they played dirty in every single match and they know it. waimea is just a bunch of cheaters and didn't deserve the win. real players play fair and tell the truth. waimea is dishonest and have too much pride. they are poor sports and everyone knows it "

cookiesfrickinrock wrote on Feb 21, 2009 11:07 PM:

" i disagree with eej_wess. waimea high school has a healthy amount of pride and likes to play clean and fair. a lot of my friends say that it makes the game way more fun and challenging. i don't go there, but i have two siblings who do, so i tend to go to a lot of games and observe both the players and the fans. i believe that in all honesty eej_wess has a biased and unfair attitude about waimea high school and should keep his/her opinions about WHS to his/her self.

also, kele hanohano is a great player and deserves to go to that school in california. we'll miss him, but he'd do great. "

" Hi TGI,

Please write your name when you comment so that I know who you actually are. It was hard to tell who you were commenting about. If you were one of my classmates from high school, tough it out, bro!

I do not actually need another loser commenting also on me!

best regards,

Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Thank you for writing on lost interest but the fact remains, these issues and topic on football players remain unchanged or stat. That is they are basically called an anomaly, then strange, then rediculous. I'm happy to say however that most of them are recognized despite what have already beed said of football and UH and academics. We actually do not need to hear anymore nonsense coming out of UH. This Kenny Estes is going no further and certainly will not turn out like a Bob Nash of 1972 UH Basketball team or Les Murakami long time coach. My comments still remains as is, stat. Nothing else!

Sincerely,

Dean Kelly Sabado "

" Hello TGI,

Golf and footbal?
Yeah! one other thing for k5 here in Honolulu, lose the losers from Waimea High School or remembrance thing there. No one cares here or there on Kauai, even now and then. Those names like Lyman Lacro 1986 and P. Pereira hometown favorites or Ross Kagawa, 3rd on all time baseball list. Heh! Are you delirious or what Kauai?

Sincerely,

Dean Kelly Sabado "
