Rifle Team - Tennis

The Black and Gold 1976

Girl Riflers Tie for First; Boys Take Third

 Heavy preseason practice paid off for the McKinley Girls Rifle Team as they shot their way to a tie for first with Farrington at the close of the OIA season. The boys, however, had to settle for third place.

 The OIA playoffs were held at Kamehameha High School on February 26, where the girl sharpshooters saw first place slip from their sights and were forced to accept second.

 At the annual state wide meet, a mid-season event at Baldwin High on Maui, the team finished a very creditable third.

 Coach Alan Tokumura said the rifle team proved to be much better than was expected and had a very eventful season.

Tiger Netters Seek Discipline, Consistency

 Discipline and consistency in play would guide the Tiger netters to a most satisfying 1976 season.

 A strong girls' team ranked with seniors swept through an undefeated preseason, showing some prospects for the state tournament slated for the Easter vacation. The second doubles team steadily pulled through with much needed triumphs.
 With the second-seed transferring to Kaimuki, the promising young male netter lacked enough depth to allow for substitutions.

 Resurfacing of the school tennis courts prior to season's start routed daily practices to nearby facilities. Nevertheless, achieving agility and teamwork in the doubles provided the aspects for an exciting six-week schedule.

Soccer

The Black and Gold 1976

Tiger Soccer Team Gains Fourth Consecutive OIA Title 

 The Varsity Soccer Team kicked their way through an undefeated nine game season. McKinley’s tough defense yielded goals to only three teams, Farrington, Roosevelt and Leilehua. Farrington scored a useless goal in the final minutes of the game on a fast break. Roosevelt fell to the Tigers, scoring their only goal on a penalty kick.

 McKinley met the Mules at Leilehua for the final game of the season. Both teams were undefeated and looking for the OIA Championship. For the first time this season, the Tigers were trailing when the Mules put in a penalty kick halfback Chang Hong bounced McKinley back at the end of the half with a goal to tie the score.

 Seung Teak and Chul Sun Park tallied one each for the Tigers in the second half while Leilehua took advantage of two fast breaks to score two goals and ended the game in a tie at three apiece.

 McKinley shot through the OIA round robin untouched beating Kailua, 4-0, Kalani, 2-0, and Leilehua, 2-0.

 The Tigers had a field day against Konawaena in the state play-offs, romping them, 6-0.

 For the state championship, McKinley faced Punahou at Kapiolani field. Punahou was the only team in the state to hold McKinley scoreless, taking the state title, 2-0.

 Punahou’s first goal came in the first half, when a Buffanblu player used his head to put it in. Their next goal game in the closing moments of the game on a penalty kick.

 The Tigers wound up the season with their fourth consecutive OIA title, and third consecutive state second place.
