Kahuku running back Aofaga Wily rushed for 141 yards and four touchdowns in the Red Raiders’ 47-14 win over Farrington tonight in the semifinals of the First Hawaiian Bank/HHSAA Division I State Football Championship at Aloha Stadium.

Farrington running back Tyler Taumua finished with 104 yards and two touchdowns, including a 78-yard run in the fourth quarter. The Governors closed the season at 9-3.
