Pac-Five escapes with win

Pac-Five 10, Saint Louis I-AA 0

Seth Miller scored on a 31-yard touchdown run with 7:25 remaining as the Wolfpack (2-2 ILH Division I/II) escaped with a hard-earned victory over the I-AA Crusaders (3-3, 2-2 ILH).

Colt Hauptman had two interceptions and Rome Lilio had one for the Wolfpack, who withstood two Crusaders drives into the red zone.

Saint Louis’ defense kept a lid on Miller for most of the afternoon, limiting him to no yards on five carries in the first half. The ’Pack went to a full-house backfield to pave the way for Miller, one of several two-way starters.

He bounced out of the scrum, broke one tackle near the left sideline and one more en route to the end zone.

He had nine carries for 12 rushing yards before his clutch TD run. Miller finished with 45 yards on 16 attempts.

Evan Derauf added a 43-yard field goal with 1:54 remaining to ice the win for Pac-Five.

Kaiser 21, Waialua 12

Quarterback Sean Connell rushed for a touchdown and threw for another to lead the Cougars (4-3, 4-2) over the Bulldogs (3-5, 2-4).

Kaiser scored the next three touchdowns, with Jayvien Smith scoring on a 1-yard run to put the Cougars ahead 21-6 in the third quarter.

Keagan Lime had a game-high nine receptions for 128 yards and a touchdown for the Cougars, who can lock up a playoff berth with a Kalaheo loss to Kalani today.
