State Baseball Tournament: Day Two Thoughts

Tough day for our Big Island teams on Thursday. But it all had a common theme to it. Hitting and mistakes.

Kohala couldn't muster a hit against #1 Kauai in Division II. Some speculate that Kauai should've made an effort at playing Division I, but this is what they decided, and they crushed the Cowboys.

Speaking of a lack of hitting, that accurately describes Waiakea. Only got two hits as they got shut out by Saint Louis. The Crusaders haven't given up a run this postseason.

Now to the mistakes, and a couple of them proved costly for Kamehameha in their loss to Maui High. Kamehameha will play for 7th place on Saturday, as they lost to Roosevelt on Friday.

For #4 Honokaa in Division II, it was both. Three hits and three errors. They lost by 10 to Molokai.

Tough day to see the rest of our teams knocked out. We'll see what we can do in the consolation bracket.


*****UPDATE*****: We will broadcast the 5th place game between Waiakea and Roosevelt on Saturday beginning at 10:45 am from Les Murakami Stadium!
