HAWAI’I KAI — The Kalaheo football achieved a feat that no other team in program history has been able to do in 17 years as the Mustangs came away with a 21-14 win over Kalani to close out the regular season Saturday night.
It was Kalaheo’s seventh win of the season as they improved to 7-1 overall and 6-1 in OIA Division II play. The last time the Mustangs won seven games was in 2008.
Zak Davis earned Fun Factory’s ‘VIP of the Game’ award, catching five passes for 70 yards and a 16-yard touchdown pass for the first score of the game from quarterback Nai Kalauokaaea.
Also scoring TDs for the Mustangs were Jayden Carreiro and Loch Moorman with a pair of scoring runs in the second half.
