The Shutout Streak is over. Barely.
The Lunas remain undefeated at 6-0 in the MIL. They zipped out to a 21-0 lead in the first quarter, thanks to some spectacular plays. On the second play of the game, Semisi Filikitonga intercepted a pass and returned it 37 yards for the touchdown. On the third play of the next possession, Kaimana Ancog intercepted the ball and returned it 22 yards for a touchdown. After a 3 and out and a Sam Filiai sack (Sam was on fire tonight), Kiko Kohler-Fonohema connected with Semisi Filikitonga on a 43 yard touchdown pass, most of which consisted of Misi piling up yards-after-the-catch.
The Warriors score came thanks to some miscues by the Lunas offense, specifically fumbles in the Lunas own territory. The offense was not in sync coming out of halftime. Kiko fumbled and Kamehameha recovered near mid-field. They drove the ball down and were threatening to score, but the Lunas D-Line came up huge. They were stopped on downs, but Kiko fumbled again, this time at their own 19. Again the defense held but the Warriors managed to hit their 35-yard field goal.
Next game is a big rematch with Baldwin. Time to start a new streak. Time to lay claim to be undisputed MIL champs.
