KEAAU – Kamehameha shooters taking aim at practice only have to glance slightly to the left to read the banner on the wall.
No matter how hard they focus on their targets, they’ve no doubt memorized it: THINK LIKE CHAMPIONS. ACT LIKE CHAMPIONS.
The Warriors, collectively, finally are champions.
It’s not hyperbole to say one off the BIIF’s all-time greatest dynasties fell Saturday when Kamehameha’s boys edged Waiakea at Koaia Gym in the last regular-season air riflery match. It wasn’t only Kamehameha first team title – it was the first time Waiakea failed to sweep the crowns since the BIIF sanctioned the sport.
