Saint Louis sophomores Mason Tufaga and Wynden Hoohuli were both listed in the first 247Sports recruiting rankings for the class of 2021.
Tufaga, a 6-foot-1, 180-pound outside linebacker, was listed as the No. 83 overall prospect in the nation and sixth among players at his position.
Tufaga has already earned scholarship offers from Hawaii, Oregon, Oregon State, South Carolina, Southern California and Utah.
Hoohuli, an inside linebacker who is already 6 feet 3 and 220 pounds, is ranked as the No. 112 overall prospect in the country among sophomores and third among inside linebackers.
Hawaii, Arizona and Utah have already offered Hoohuli.
They are the only four-star recruits currently listed by 247Sports among the sophomore class from Hawaii.
Including the junior class, all five four-star recruits currently in Hawaii attend Saint Louis — linebackers Jordan Botelho, Nate Herbig, Tufaga and Hoohuli and junior receiver Matt Sykes, who recently was offered by Oregon.
Hawaii offers Punahou QB Brady
Punahou quarterback Hugh Brady announced on social media last week that he has received a scholarship offer from Hawaii.
The 6-foot-3, 200-pound junior threw for 2,309 yards and 26 touchdowns with nine interceptions and ran for two scores in nine-plus games for the Buffanblu in his first year as the starter.
He was knocked out of Punahou’s season-ending loss to Saint Louis on the first offensive play of the game.
Brady’s best game was when he threw for 378 yards and four touchdowns with no interceptions in a 43-21 win over eventual OIA champion Mililani, which went on to play in the Open Division state final against the Crusaders.
Hawaii is the first school to offer Brady, who is one of only two junior quarterbacks (Saint Louis’ Jayden de Laura) in the state with at least one D-I offer.
Wong sets meet record in 300 hurdles on Maui
The weekend was a bit busy for Anne Wong.
On Thursday, the Sacred Hearts junior and her track and field team flew to Maui for the Victorino Ohana meet at War Memorial Stadium. Her time in the trials of the 300-meter hurdles was 47.44 seconds, good enough to qualify for the finals.
It was the best time of her career, which began just one year ago. She had posted a 49.75 at Kamehameha on March 9, a 50.00 at the Martinson and Lee Invitational (Punahou) on March 16, and a 48.72 at the Cal Track/Ruby Tuesday Invitational on March 23.
“I’ve been improving my time in each meet, getting comfortable. I still get nervous, but I try to improve each time,” Wong said.
On Friday, she broke the meet record in the 300 hurdles with a time of 46.41 seconds.
“My coach had a hand time of 45, then they announced the 46 and said (I) set a new meet record. I said, ‘Cool!’ The wind helped a lot. We were mostly running with the wind. I don’t know if I would’ve gotten that time here on Oahu,” said Wong, who also placed third in the 100 hurdles and 200 dash.
Her time in the 100 hurdles was 18.6 in the trials, another PR. Her trials effort in the 200 dash was 27.21, yet another PR.
“For the 100 hurdles, me and two other girls were really close, neck to neck. The 300, it was really staggered,” Wong said.
