KAILUA-KONA — Makua Lani opened its soccer season at Old Airport Park on Tuesday with a 3-1 victory over Kealakehe. The Lions controlled possession in a game that could have been put away in the first half, if not for normal early season mistakes, especially for a team that is starting several freshmen.
Most of Makua Lani’s mistakes came inside the box as the team showed great chemistry in the passing game.
“That is something we have been focusing on a lot,” said Lions coach Riley Alcos. “They made sure their passes were accurate and that they were the right ones to make.
