Four times was not enough.

The Red Raiders forced the winner-take-all game after handing the Bulldogs their first loss in the OIA's modified double-elimination postseason tournament, 45-41, last night at McKinley.

Kapa'a tops No. 1 Kahuku, 60-56, in win to 'dye' for

As if facing the No. 1 seed in the quarterfinals wasn't motivation enough, the Kapa'a players were playing with an extra incentive last night.

Kapa'a coach Terry Maguire told her players that if they knocked off Kahuku, they would be allowed to dye their hair green.

The Warriors can break out the coloring after topping Kahuku, 60-56, in the HHSAA/Hawaiian Airlines Girls DIvision II State Basketball Championship quarterfinals last night at Kalani High School.
