Don’t believe what a Las Vegas news station has reported: First, it’s the Kahuku High School football team — not Kahuko — and the players did not travel from the Big Island to Vegas.

Today the Red Raiders take on No. 1 ranked Bishop Gorman in the Gaels’ hometown of Las Vegas.

The No. 17 Red Raiders sold out their ticket allotment of 2,000 in less than an hour, so they’ll have ample support at Fertitta Field — as well as at home.

The Red Raiders have already made their presence known, taking over Fremont Street for a rally and performing a haka.

If they play ball with the same intensity used as when they performed the haka, perhaps an upset is in the making.
