Monte Vista Loses In Hawaii
- Share via
Little went right for an inexperienced Monte Vista squad that opened its football season Saturday night at Hawaii’s Aloha Stadium against Honolulu Punahou. Punahou emerged with a 28-9 victory.
Monte Vista (0-1) trailed 16-0 before it found the end zone for the first time--in the fourth quarter.
The touchdown came on a freak play after a Punahou safety. Monte Vista’s John Anderson got to the ensuing kick before any Punahou players and ran it 30 yards for a touchdown.
John Acosta later kicked a 42-yard field goal to finish Monte Vista’s scoring.
After that game, Morse and Honolulu Farrington played. The result was not available at press time.
