JV Basketball

The Black and Gold 1976



JV Quint Displays Finest OIA Score Card

  Following the ascending basketball trend, the junior cagers reversed last year’s 6-8 mark for their finest OIA season.

  Maryknoll, Moanalua, Aiea, Mililani, Mid-Pacific and Campbell fell to the JV Tigers, with only Damien edging McKinley by a  bucket, for a 6-1 preseason score. Second-year Head Coach Alvin Tokuda emptied his bench as the Tiger Cubs romped over the Kahuku Red Raiders. Hit hard by the flu epidemic, the jayvees were overcome by their following three adversaries before squeaking past Roosevelt.

  The Cub cage team tallied 20 points in the final period to upset an undefeated 5-0 Kaimuki five. Although outscored 14-3, the jayvees held back a fourth quarter Kaiser rally to slip past the Cougars.  Kailua scored an outrageous 28 points to defeat the junior Tigers. Castle slid past McKinley by a mere five points.  After the Cubs lead 28-22 at the half, Kaimuki mounted an incredible 24 points to McKinley’s 15.

  The jayvees retaliated a previous first-round loss to Kalani and passed the Kaiser quintet before falling to the Roosevelt cagers.  The season ended on a winning note over Farrington, dealing the JV cagers an impressive eight win and six loss record.
