Behind a blanket back-row defense, Kamehameha stifled Waiakea’s hard-hitting in a BIIF Division I showdown, 25-23, 25-19, 25-16, on Thursday night at Koai’a Gym.
Instead of offense, it was defense that sparked Kamehameha (11-1) to the sweep. Libero Seizen Alameda and Kiki Troy each had 14 digs while Summer Ah Choy and Keani Akui chipped in 10 digs each.
Alameda comes from the household of liberos. Her older sister is Hilo graduate Angel Alameda, who recorded 47 digs in a match at Eastern Arizona, and her brother is Kekaulike Alameda, a libero at Barton College in North Carolina.
