The Kauai Interscholastic Federation champion got off to a slow start, but it turned up at the right time to pick up an opening round win.

Third-seeded Kapaa scored runs in four straight innings, including a five-run bottom sixth, to get past Waianae, 9-3, at Hans L'Orange Park Wednesday afternoon in the quarterfinals of the Wally Yonamine Foundation/HHSAA Division II Baseball Championships.

winner pitcher Kaimi Malina scattered six hits through five innings and drove in the go-ahead run in the bottom of the fifth to lead the Warriors into the semifinals. They will play at 1:00 p.m. Thursday at Les Murakami Stadium.

Kade Kupihea was also key as he pitched two scoreless innings of relief to pick up the save.

Rico Rosario led the Seariders in the loss with a triple and a double.

Farrington's Chasen Castilliano (33) batted 4-for-5 with five RBIs and an inside-the-park grand slam to power the Governors over Molokai. Farrington's Chasen Castilliano (33) batted 4-for-5 with five RBIs and an inside-the-park grand slam to power the Governors over Molokai. Michael Lasquero | SL
