Waimea was itching to finally get its season underway, but came up short 38-21 to Buckeye Union of Arizona at Hanapepe Stadium on Saturday night.
The Menehunes — who won the Division II state championship last season — did not have a game in the first two weeks of Hawaii high school football this year.
Incidentally, Buckeye Union head coach David Ellis is originally from Hawaii.
