Kahuku rallies late to topple Leilehua, 24-20

Hauoli Jamora achieved a lineman's dream by scoring a touchdown, but he'll take the five sacks that helped top-ranked Kahuku rally past No. 3 Leilehua 24-20 last night at Aloha Stadium to win its second consecutive and 14th O'ahu Interscholastic Association football title since 1970.

Punga Vea's 44-yard touchdown run on an end reverse with five minutes, six seconds left in the game was the second of two fourth-quarter TDs to help the Red Raiders come back from a 20-10 deficit after three quarters.

Kahuku (11-0) draws a first-round state Division I tournament bye and plays in one semifinal Nov. 27 at Aloha Stadium.
