2007 Hawaii State Basketball Tournament: Iolani Raiders
UPDATED: The Iolani Boys Basketball team is looking to defend their state championship again this year and extend their streak of 5-straight titles, but unlike years past, they’ll have to take the long road.
For the first time in seven seasons, the Raiders will go into the state tournament unseeded after finishing the ILH in second to the Punahou Buff-n-Blu. What that means for Iolani is that they will not receive a first round bye and will need to win 4 games (instead of 3) to capture their 6th straight title.
The “probable” road to the championship (if they can keep winning):
Round 1: Iolani vs. Baldwin @ Radford - Iolani Wins 70-45 Box Score »
Round 2: Iolani vs. Kamehameha-Hawaii @ Radford - Feb 21st, 6:00pm
Semifinals: Iolani vs. (St. Louis or Kaimuki)* @ Stan Sheriff - Feb 22nd, 8:00pm (TV)
Finals: Iolani vs. (Kalaheo or Punahou)* @ Stan Sheriff - Feb 23rd, 8:00pm (TV)
* Teams “expected” to make it through, but not guaranteed
