After the opening 12 minutes, Moanalua looked like the top-10 team, while Mililani seemed unworthy of its preseason No. 6 ranking.

By the time halftime rolled around, nothing was further from the truth.

Kaimi Wilson caught two touchdown passes from Jarin Morikawa, including a 54-yard score with no time left on the clock in the first half, to help the Trojans defeat host Moanalua 36-7 on Friday night in the preseason opener for both teams.­­­­

Wilson, a converted safety, hauled in nine receptions for 185 yards, helping Mililani score 36 unanswered points after Na Menehune controlled the first quarter.
