The Kapolei football team looked like it was already in midseason form in its season opener Saturday afternoon.

The tenth-ranked Hurricanes scored on every possession en route to their largest win in school history, a 70-0 drubbing over visiting Kealakehe in a non-league matchup at the Alvin Nagasako Sports Complex.

Sophomore quarterback Liatama "Tama" Amisone was a maestro for the home team, completing 16 of 16 passes for 234 yards and seven touchdowns in two quarters of work. He also ran for a 26-yard score on a QB draw play.
