Moanalua Na Menehune Strong Defense Holds Off the McKinley Tigers 42-13

The Na Menehune strong defense held off the McKinley Tigers last night at Moanalua High School for their second win in a row.  Last week, the Na Menehune beat the Kaimuki Bull Dogs, 36-0 after losing to Farrington, 28-7 the previous week.  Moanalua's hard work and determination helped them to take the victory over the McKinley Tigers tonight.  

The game started with the Na Menehune kicking off to the Tigers, but a turnover at the 9 yard line turned into a TD when QB #15 Micah Kaneshiro connected with WR #2 Jon-Michael Sharsh (photo above) with 11:15 on the clock.  But hold on to your helmet, within 13 seconds the Tigers came right back when RB #7 Germine Bradley took the kickoff and tied the game 7-7 in the first quarter.

After this eye opener, the Na Menehune took no chances and their defense just pounded away at the Tigers, adding more TDs by RB #20 Kaleo Yanai, WR #3 Donald Lambert (3-TD) and WR #7 Sheldon Pagba to seal the game 42-13.  For stats "click here." For action photos, "click here."
