New Hall of Honor class announced




The latest class of the Hawaii High School Athletic Association Hall of Honor has been tabbed.

Twelve senior student-athletes from four leagues on three different islands make up the 2017 Hall of Honor induction class.

They are:

• Kayla Afoa, Kamehameha (volleyball, track and field, soccer)

• Kesi Ah-Hoy, Kahuku (football, basketball)

• Jocelyn Alo, Campbell (softball, wrestling)

• Lia Foster, Punahou (swimming & diving)

Foster and Tagovailoa were also honored as ScoringLive's Distinguished Female and Male Athletes of the Year, respectively, Sunday night at the Manoa Grand Ballroom.

A 16-member committee made up of present and former media members, athletic directors and coaches statewide made the selections Sunday after two days of meetings. While athletic achievement is the main criterion, also considered were sportsmanship, character and community service.

Each inductee will be presented with a $2,000 scholarship provided by Enterprise Holdings.

The class will be inducted at an awards banquet at 5 p.m. on June 4 at the Dole Cannery Pomaikai Ballrooms. For ticket information, call 808-800-4092.
