Here we are in the midst of the BIIF Boys Basketball season and both races in DI & DII are heating up. Kealakehe defeated Waiakea last night and there is a logjam of teams with two losses. In the DII division, Kohala has gone through round one undefeated, beating Ka’u and St Joseph. With St Joseph having two losses, it almost forces the Cardinals to win against Ka’u and Pahoa in round two. Although Kohala is definitely in the driver’s seat, strange things can and usually happens in the wacky BIIF.
Ka’u is still in the race with one loss, and Pahoa has a very long outside shot, but could prove to be a spoiler. As we head into the second half of the season, the Boys DI Basketball title will be decided with the team that has three losses or less. In the Girls division, Konawaena seems to be running away (Literally) with the title. However, Keaau, Hilo and Waiakea still have an outside shot of catching Kona. To do that they will have to hope, someone figures out how to slow down the transition game and tenacious defense of the Wildcats.
If the second half goes the way of the first, then the rest of the girls BIIF DI teams have to hope they do not face Konawaena in the BIIF Tournament, or it could be a quick exit.
In BIIF DII Girls division, HPA upset Kamehameha and are in the driver’s seat in round one and will meet the Warriors again. If this were 2008, HPA would be definitely looking at a solid regular season title. But with this new exciting DI and DII schedule, Kamehameha has another shot at redemption. The next two weeks should be very exciting in BIIF basketball, hang on to your hats.
