Tucker Giltner anchors Honokaa’s offensive line, which returns all its starters from a year ago, providing stability and leadership skills to a team looking for an upgrade.
The Dragons captured the BIIF Division I championship in 2009, dropped to D-II the next year and searched for so long to find the right blueprint for their next title.
Konawaena and Kamehameha have been the teams to beat in Division II. The two have combined to win every league crown since 2010.
One good way to slow those opposing offenses is to limit possessions. Giltner and his fellow O-line starters — Makaio Liftee, Jason Yadao, Keenan Pierson, and CJ Tablit — will be counted on to help extend drives in Honokaa’s Pistol set offense.
