    Since its been pretty dead the last few days I thought I start up a trivia thread. Feel free to add your own.

    Prior to Junior Ale (Kahuku) being named Hawaii High School Boys Player of the Year, who was the previous 3 OIA players to have been named Hawaii High School Boys Player of the Year?

    Again, feel free to add your own trivia!

    2001 - Skyler Wilson, Kalaheo
    1997 - Ramsey Williams, Moanalua
    1996 - Isaac Castro, Moanalua

    Other than Junior Ale, who was the last player to be named State Player of the Year without his team winning a state championship in that year?

    The only guy that comes to mind is Jarrin Akana from Moloka'i. Like Ale, he was also a co-player of the year along with James Williams from University High in 1988. Not only did Akana's team not win States that year...they didn't even play in the Championship game! He was an outstanding player. Believe he is still working as a player development coach somewhere in the NBA. Got his start in the NBA from Pete Newell and Kiki Vandeweghe at The Big Man Camp here in Hawaii. Jarrin was an assistant coach there.

    Not sure if from 1988 to now there was another player that garnered award while not winning states though.

    HiSelect, can you confirm Shaka's answer?

    Here's another one: Since Shaka mentioned 1988, along with James Williams and Jarrin Akana, can someone name the other 3 players on the All-State 1st team?
