Punahou had guys like Glenn Goya, Mosi Tatupu, Moss, Anae, Kitamura and many more. Punahou had the bases loaded in the first inning with no outs. A skinny freshman named Dereck Tatsuno came in relief for Mark Nagamine and struck out the side. Punahou could only score one run on the freshman until Gerald Ako came in the sixth and finished the game. With a perfect record of 16 - 0, this Aiea team was one of the greatest high school baseball teams ever assembled in Hawaii.

Just hard to imagine such a small school winning the state title back to back. Previous years they were the team that everyone wanted to draw in the first game to save their ace pitcher. Always have a soft heart for the underdogs. By the way did anyone see Virginia Tech upset our USA softball team? The USA team did not look too happy. Molokai’s back to back titles.
