Mahalo to Paul Just of Western Kentucky University’s sports media department for keeping everyone in the loop about the Kaua‘i Collegiate Cup. Paul had his son Trey here helping with the tournament along with former WKU golfer Ryan Waialae (yes, he was born on O‘ahu).
Fred Levinthol has been a gracious liaison between the county and the WKU organizers and the caliber of play and the golfers has been great.
Congratulations to WKU coach Brian Turpak and all the organizers on a great tournament! And mahalo to all the coaches for getting the team here. Without teams, there’s no Kaua‘i Collegiate Cup!
Eddie Payton of Jackson University was one of those coaches. He said he used to play football for nine years, but now coaches golf.
Mahalo to coach Basil Scott of Waimea High School for getting the track results to us so we didn’t have to wait in the rain. Between the collegiate cup and the track meet, there was sports all around.
Coach Bobby Kamakele is still shaking his head about how Kaulupono played Thursday. Coach Bobby was helping at track, Friday night.
OK, ‘nuff said … time to go hear Mayor Bernard Carvalho talk about the state of the county.
