Quarterback Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele has been throwing darts, so to speak, on the Hawaii high school football field for two seasons now.
And now, only a sophomore, Sagapolutele has Campbell (6-2, 4-2 OIA Open) in prime position to make a playoff run.
Last Friday in a 49-21 win over Waianae, the 6-foot-4, 200-pound Sagapolutele set the all-time single-game school passing record with 450 yards in closing out the Sabers’ regular season. On his 27-for-36 night, he also threw for five touchdowns.
For all of that, Sagapolutele is Bedrock Sports Hawaii’s outstanding football player of WEEK 10.
Next Friday, however, is the major test for Campbell. That’s when the Sabers will play in the OIA Open semifinals against the loser of this Saturday’s Mililani (6-2, 5-0) at Kahuku (7-2, 5-0) game.
In Campbell’s eight games, he has thrown for 2,377 yards with 23 touchdowns and six interceptions. In 2021 in five games as a freshman for Saint Louis II, he passed for 1,730 yards with 21 TDs and five picks.
“We expect that from him,” Sabers coach Darren Johnson told the Honolulu Star-Advertiser’s Jonathan Chen after the win over Waianae. “It’s not like ‘wow’ when he plays like this. We expect him to do good things for us — that’s why he’s our guy right now.”
