The BIIF Division I boys soccer semifinals once again can be referred to as rivalry day.
Waiakea’s Gehrig Octavio provided the go-ahead goal in the second half Friday as the Warriors beat Konawaena 2-1 on their senior day, ensuring both teams will stay close to home in the semis.
On Wednesday in the playoffs, Waiakea (8-5-0) plays at Hilo (10-3-0), while the Wildcats (7-5-1) fall to the fourth seed and visit four-time league champion Kealakehe (11-0-2).
Sergio Garcia scored early in the second half as the Wildcats briefly tied the game before Octavio struck on a direct kick from about 30 yards away.
