Hilo adds to state PONY title collection

The stage never seems to get too big for Bula Ahuna, who fits in just fine on a baseball powerhouse. One day that could come in handy on another juggernaut, but first Ahuna has to get ready to go to California again.

Another day, another state title for Hilo — Ahuna pitched a two-hitter with 11 strikeouts, and he cracked a three-run home run as Hilo beat Maui 5-1 to win the Pony 13s title in Wailuku, Maui.

It would be hard to imagine a better week for Hilo PONY League teams, who have brought home four state titles in the last seven days.
