KEAAU — There can be pitfalls and traps when trying to draw long-range conclusions from the Canefire Conditioner.
For one, the preseason cross-country race is a one-of-a-kind on the BIIF calender in that it’s a two-person relay event. For another, it’s the sole race held at Christian Liberty, which is a long way, figuratively speaking, from the course at Kamehameha, site of this season’s league championships.
Also, it should be noted Honokaa’s runners didn’t compete last Saturday, so two-time champion Sophia Cash was missing from the girls field, and Konawaena was among the other schools not at the event.
