Kamehameha opened last week with a loss to ‘Iolani, but stymied Mid-Pacific and Damien to collect six first-place votes and remain at No. 1 in the Star-Advertiser Baseball Top 10 on Monday.
The Warriors benefited from an another unpredictable week in the ILH, where Saint Louis lost twice (to Mid-Pacific and Punahou), Pac-Five beat ‘Iolani and Maryknoll stopped Mid-Pacific.
Baldwin swept Lahainaluna in a three-game series and moved up three slots to No. 2. The Bears collected the remaining three first-place votes.
Waiakea remained at No. 3 despite a 3-1 loss to Hilo. The Warriors are tied with Saint Louis.
Kailua crept higher to No. 6 after wins over Kaiser and Moanalua. The Surfriders are on a six-game win streak.
Hilo landed in the Top 10 at No. 8. The Vikings are 6-0 in BIIF play and will host Konawaena on Saturday.
