One of the favorites for the OIA Division II softball crown certainly look the part in the season opener.
‘Aiea started the 2026 regular season slate with a mercy-rule win, 30-5, Tuesday afternoon at Annex Field.
After going down 4-0 in the top of the first inning, Na Ali’i scored 22 runs on 12 hits in the bottom of the frame and never looked back as the matchup ended after three full innings.
Leadoff hitter and shortstop Skye Tingkang showed a strong eye at the plate scoring a team-high five runs. She singled in her only at bat while drawing three walks and garnering three RBIs.
Winning pitcher Wyndie Asing had a solid day at the plate as the No. 3 hitter with two triples in her two at bats and finished with a team-high six RBIs.
Rylee Baptista also had a productive day, scoring four runs on three hits.
In total, ‘Aiea collected 20 total hits while drawing 17 walks.
MJ Galicia led the McKinley at the plate with the team’s lone hit.
Even though it wasn’t the result the Tigers wanted, it was a step in the right direction for a team that had to forfeit their entire 2025 season due to low turnout numbers.
