This week we asked fans who they think will win the Interscholastic League of Honolulu Division II second round final Saint Francis and Damien this Saturday.

Damien, who won the league's first round title, can win its third straight ILH D2 championship with a win this weekend. On the other hand, the Saints will need to beat the Monarchs twice if they hope to win the league crown.

Saint Francis held a 12-0 halftime lead and a 20-7 advantage in the third quarter in the first meeting between the two teams, but Damien rallied with 20 unanswered points to win 27-20.

The rematch between the two teams was much decisive as the Saints dominated their way to a 19-0 win on Oct. 7.

@alohaakea thinks the Monarchs will win because they are a strong second half team.

@potaghee says the Monarchs will be supported no matter what.

Hipi Sulunga is picking Saint Francis because it has some players that plays rugby.

@luna808_best thinks Damien QB Marcus Faufata-Pedrina will be key for the Monarchs' success.

@basic.qellsy is picking the Saints to win the league title this year.

@phillip.enos thinks the game will come down to whoever makes less mistakes.

@pistolsteve316 has a simple game game plan for success.

Kickoff between the Saints and Monarchs is slated for 3 p.m. at Hawaiian Tel FCU Field at Aloha Stadium.
