Kuʻulei Agbayani is the driving force behind Hawai‘i Sports Radio Network’s daily operations and on-air presence. In December 2021, she launched Wake Up in The Den w/ Kuʻulei Agbayani, becoming the first full-time female host of a daily sports talk radio show in Hawai‘i. The show continues to serve as a cornerstone of HSRN’s programming, blending local insight, national headlines, and thoughtful conversations that elevate Hawai‘i’s sports culture.

With more than 15 years in sports media, Kuʻulei’s journey began at Honolulu’s ESPN Radio affiliate shortly after college, where she started as a Promotions Assistant and worked her way through nearly every role in the building — including production, traffic, programming, and on-air hosting. That hands-on foundation shaped the versatile broadcaster she is today.

A proud Mililani High School alumna, Kuʻulei was a multi-sport athlete in basketball and soccer before continuing her soccer career at Chaminade University, where she studied Criminology & Criminal Justice. Her athlete’s perspective remains central to her storytelling and analysis.

As a color analyst for college and high school flag football, basketball and soccer, Kuʻulei brings preparation, detail, and a deep understanding of the game to every broadcast. Her coverage spans football, surfing, women’s sports, MMA, sports business, legislation, and the evolving sports wagering landscape — reflecting her belief that Hawai‘i sports coverage should be as broad and dynamic as the community it represents.

Though she never initially aspired to work in sports media, Kuʻulei found her calling through a relentless commitment to learning and growth. She still approaches every broadcast with the same mindset: improve daily, elevate local voices, and represent Hawai‘i sports with integrity.

Paul Brecht serves as one of Hawai‘i Sports Radio Network’s lead play-by-play voices and a key contributor to the station’s daily programming. As the Voice of HPU Basketball, Brecht anchors coverage for Hawai‘i Pacific University’s men’s and women’s programs, bringing energy, preparation, and storytelling to every broadcast.

Beyond HPU, Paul is a versatile presence across HSRN’s live event coverage. He calls high school basketball, football, and baseball — often shifting between play-by-play and analyst roles depending on the broadcast — while also maintaining strong coverage ties to University of Hawai‘i football and basketball. His adaptability makes him one of the network’s most relied-upon broadcasters.

A 2021 graduate of Ithaca College with a bachelor’s degree in Sport Media, Brecht developed his foundation covering high school and collegiate athletics in the Northeast before relocating to Honolulu. Since arriving in Hawai‘i, he has built a reputation for detailed preparation, sharp in-game awareness, and a deep understanding of both collegiate and prep athletics across the islands.

In addition to his broadcasting duties, Paul is a producer and co-host of Wake Up in The Den, contributing insight, research, and perspective to HSRN’s flagship morning show.

Whether behind the mic for a championship matchup or helping shape the daily conversation, Brecht remains committed to elevating Hawai‘i athletics through consistent, professional coverage.

From game-day photography and videography to feature writing and social media strategy, Lasquero plays a central role in shaping HSRN’s digital presence.

Before joining HSRN in 2023, Michael spent nearly a decade as a reporter and multimedia contributor for ScoringLive, beginning in August 2013. During that time, he developed extensive knowledge of Hawai‘i high school athletics and established himself as a trusted voice in the prep sports landscape.

Today, he is widely regarded as one of HSRN’s lead reporters for both University of Hawai‘i football and high school football coverage. His work blends visual storytelling with on-the-ground reporting, giving audiences deeper context beyond the box score.

A proud Waipahu High School graduate (Class of 2011), Michael studied journalism at Hawai‘i Pacific University. His understanding of the local sports ecosystem — from high school campuses to legislative chambers — allows him to cover not just games, but the policies and developments shaping the future of athletics in Hawai‘i, including issues surrounding UH athletics and the evolving Aloha Stadium district (NASED).

Whether behind the lens, in the press box, or tracking developments at the Capitol, Lasquero remains committed to telling Hawai‘i’s sports stories with depth and authenticity.

With more than 20 years of experience as a writer, marketer, and public relations professional, Kyle’s background spans Hawai‘i and multiple mainland markets. His deep understanding of communication and audience engagement translates naturally into the broadcast booth, where preparation and perspective elevate his calls.

A Kailua native (born in Portland, Oregon), Galdeira graduated with honors from Kamehameha Schools Kapālama in 2003 before earning his bachelor’s degree in journalism from Hawai‘i Pacific University, graduating as undergraduate valedictorian in 2006.
