LIHU‘E — Kaua‘i High School girls bowler Mikayla Pacheco-Villanueva, rolling a 191 total in the third set on Thursday, led the Red Raider ladies to the top of three teams during the Kaua‘i Interscholastic Federation, week two results.
The Red Raider ladies tallied a 2,139 pinfall to claim first place over Kapa‘a, which finished in second place with an 1,886 pinfall, led by Skye Tadani. Waimea rounded out the leaderboard with an 1,806 pinfall. The Menehune were led by Andrelyn Acoba.
The Kaua‘i High School boys, led by Trestyn Reis and Cody Nii, finished tops in the Boys Division with a 2,345 pinfall over Waimea High School, which finished with a 2,148 team pinfall. Richard Palacio paced Waimea. Kapa‘a boys rounded out the leaderboard with 2,045 pinfall. William Kimura led Kapa‘a.
“For all the years I’ve coached, this by far, has to be the most nail-biting season,” said Kaua‘i High School coach Kyrin Sasaki.
“Thursday night was Week two of six. Kaua‘i boys are ahead, winning the opening two weeks. Kapa‘a girls won the first week, and Kaua‘i girls won the second week. With both boys and girls teams being so evenly matched, you really need to come and see who will come out victorious each week. Awesome job to all the KIF bowlers.”
