Sisco Kaleopaa-Ancheta forced a fumble on the ensuing kickoff to set up a short field for the Trojans' offense. Treston "Kini" McMillan scored on a 10-yard scamper after the takeaway to give Mililani a 28-0 lead after the opening stanza.

Emana Tarape played two drives at quarterback in the first quarter and took all the snaps behind center in the final three periods. He finished the game completing 15 of 24 passes for 266 yards and a 46-yard touchdown that went to Onosai Salanoa to make it a 35-0 game at halftime.

Jensyn McGee returned the second half kickoff 95 yards to add to the Trojans' lead and Timothy Wallace took his second interception of the night 22 yards to pay dirt midway through the third quarter.
