Kamehameha moves up in Star-Advertiser high school football poll

Two games, two changes in the Star-Advertiser Football Top 10.

Kamehameha leaped ahead of Campbell to seize the No. 5 slot after a 33-28 loss to No. 4 Punahou on Friday. Punahou needed a go-ahead touchdown with 1:28 left to pull out the win.

Lahainaluna bumped Farrington out of the No. 10 spot. Public school football programs do not play until Oct. 15. The deadline for public-school student-athletes to become vaccinated for the COVID-19 virus is Sept. 24.

Saint Louis, which is a unanimous No. 1 for a second week in a row, had a bye as the ILH regular season kicked off over the weekend. The four-time defending Open Division champion will meet Kamehameha on Friday at Aloha Stadium.

‘Iolani blanked Damien, 28-0, on Friday afternoon and remains at No. 8 in the coaches and media voting. The Raiders are the only Division I program in the poll. Lahainaluna is the lone D-II squad in the Top 10.
