In the rematch, it was the Kawai Ua and Jordyn Hayashi show again as Hilo battled Waiakea in another BIIF volleyball crosstown rivalry classic.
The Vikings outlasted Waiakea 19-25, 25-21, 10-25, 25-18, 15-6 in a Division I roller-coaster on Thursday night at the Warriors Gym, where excitement is always in the air with the long-time rivals.
Ua finished with 13 kills, smashing three key points in Game 5, while Lexi Paglinawan and Taina Leao provided balance with seven kills each for Hilo (11-1), which remains in good shape for the BIIF regular season title, which includes the league’s first berth to the HHSAA tournament.
