Kamehameha-Hawaii, Waimea And Kaiser Rise In Bedrock’s Power 5s

Kamehameha-Hawaii is back in the Power 5s rankings.

The Warriors (10-1), who have the most wins of any team in the state and were high up in the Power 5s earlier this season, checked in at No. 3 in the D-II rankings after avenging their only loss with a 20-7 home victory over Honokaa last Thursday.

With the loss, the Dragons (9-1) fell from the ranks of the unbeaten and from the Power 5s.

Those two teams meet again on Saturday with the BIIF championship on the line.

Waimea (6-1) and Kaiser (6-3) also made a move up in the D-II list. The Menehunes went from No. 3 to No. 2 after tripping Kauai 7-0 on Saturday, and the Cougars went from from No. 5 to No. 4 after rallying from 17 points down to top Pearl City (7-3) in overtime, 31-24, on Friday.

After the OIA D-II semifinal loss, the Chargers slid to No. 5.

All but one of the positions in the Open Division and D-I remained the same as the last time the rankings were released two weeks ago. The only change was Punahou moving ahead of Mililani into the No. 2 spot in the Open.
