Weekly during the spring, Kamehameha sophomore Saydee Aganus draws the tough chore of going up against Hawaii Prep’s Emma Taylor in the 100-meter hurdles.
That daunting task – Taylor is a five-time state champ – has nothing on the thankless job Aganus faced during her first athletic endeavor in high school.
As a freshman getting her feet wet on a Warriors basketball team that was opening its season against perennial powerhouse Konawaena, coach Weston Willard looked at Aganus and told her, hey, go guard Chanelle Molina (only the most decorated BIIF athlete of all-time).
Such is life when you ooze athleticism.
