HILO – When Kobe Antolin walked off the field after Kealakehe’s possession in the first overtime, there was a chance he had just lost his team the game.
When Antolin went to his sideline in the second overtime, he had given his team a chance to win the game, and just moments later the Waveriders did.
Antolin atoned for a fumble with a 10-yard touchdown run Friday night, and Kealakehe won 30-29 at Wong Stadium after Hilo botched the extra point after their score, clinching home-field advantage in the BIIF Division I playoffs.
The teams traded touchdowns in the second overtime, and Hilo looked like it was going to send the game to a third overtime after Kahale Huddleston scored on a 17-yard touchdown reception.
