Warriors make final preparations

LAS VEGAS — If Las Vegas is Hawaii’s home away from home, then Liberty High is UH’s second playground.

With former players Greg Tipton, Uriah Moenoa and Chad Kapanui in attendance, the Warriors had a brisk walk-through session today at Liberty High.


After years of struggles, Liberty has transformed into a football powerhouse. Two years ago, Liberty outscored Mililani 77-53. It was a loaded Mililani team featuring McKenzie Milton, Vavae Malepeai and current Warrior Kalakaua Timoteo. Kapanui is a Liberty assistant coach. The Patriots have several Polynesian players. Polynesian food is served at the school’s concession stand.

Chad Kapanui and Nick Rolovich were former Warrior teammates.
The past meets the present — Greg Tipton and Dru Brown
Uriah Moenoa and offensive coordinator Brian Smith
Offensive guard John Wa‘a
Safeties Trayvon Henderson and Daniel Lewis
Bobby Curran

    A few posts ago, someone asked about Trayvon – hope he’s ready to go.

    Wow. Looks like our players and coaches are shrinking.

    The photo of Trayvon Henderson and Daniel Lewis, two playmakers, instills confidence for success in tomorrow’s game. Well, on the defensive side.

    let’s hope UH’s O isn’t predictable tomorrow and the D smashes a few Rebels! And can our punter kick away from the returner instead of right at him at such a low trajectory?

    Without the proper nutrition for our body then the body don’t grow to its potential.

    Maybe we should focus on buying our student athleats a Nutrition Table like The other teams in conference that why some injured players come out of injury faster than others its because the body is getting it proper vitamins to repair itself

    Is Trifonovitch or Meskell the field goal kicker?


  13. islandman November 3, 2017 2:57 pm

    11. Trifonovitch is the FG kicker now, per article today.

    KT could’ve been back if he took care of his grades.


  19. KOH I NOR November 3, 2017 6:37 pm

    Greg Tipton is 6-4 tall. 1986 quarterback. He wore jersey #12. He played with Rich Miano in 1984. He was the starting quarterback then.


  20. KOH I NOR November 3, 2017 7:00 pm

    Who’s KT? What grades?


  21. KOH I NOR November 3, 2017 7:06 pm

    Dru.Brown can’t see the receivers. No completion. He cannot just run. He must pass the ball too.

    When a poster says to stop running the same plays over and over and it doesn’t work is that the same thinking when you play a slot machine over and over and never hit the really big one? But I don’t see people walking away and quitting.


  23. KOH I NOR November 3, 2017 8:28 pm

    same guys all year.


  24. KOH I NOR November 3, 2017 8:39 pm

    12:00 p.m. H.T. or 4:00 p.m. P.T. Las.Vegas, Nevada

    game time


  25. H-Man November 3, 2017 8:59 pm

    I can’t say about the slots, but in blackjack, leave the table if you lose three in a row. Try another table or return later.

    Game Day by ST shows the D in a 3-4 alignment. The O-line is really a makeshift line with Posa at LG, Tuulima at C, John Wa’a at RG and Matt Norman at RT. But who knows, they might have a great game.
