Led by six touchdowns thrown by Austin Jim On, 'Iolani defeated Saint Francis by the score of 47-18 on Saturday evening at Hawaiian Airlines Field at Aloha Stadium.

Lachoneus Tautuiaki ran in a 1-yard touchdown for Saint Francis, and the score was 20-6 at intermission.

'Iolani's defensive leader, senior Marc Ma, sacked Saint Francis quarterback Maika Teal three times in the first half.

The relentless Saint Francis squad refused to give up and tested the Division II dynasty in the second half.

Two plays into the third quarter, 'Iolani's Jim On connected with Makekau for a 71-yard touchdown to push the lead to 27-6.

Saint Francis scored twice (Mamiya and Won) and narrowed the gap to 26-17 at the end of quarter three. But 'Iolani's Teruya scored twice on their first two offensive possessions in the fourth quarter. The score was then 40-18.

'Iolani's second unit scored on the last drive of the contest to make the final score 47-18.
