Future University of Hawaii Rainbow Warrior Cole Hogland put down a match-high 14 kills on 19 attempts with seven aces to lead the Raiders in the straight set win.

Third-seeded Moanalua, the Oahu Interscholastic Association champion, saw Kainoa Ferguson rack up 11 kills, five blocks and three aces to lead Na Menehune in a 25-15, 25-21, 25-9 victory over Kamehameha-Hawaii.
