Hanalani Athletics Wraps Up the 2023 Fall Season with an HHSAA Title and Three ILH Titles!

While it is easy to celebrate the accomplishments (and rightfully so!), let us remember that there are a lot of stories in sports that are often unseen. We may not always see the hard work, the grueling practices, and the sacrifice that goes on throughout not just the season, but in the off-season. For that, we are thankful for our athletes and coaches, for the unseen time and energy that goes into the sport. We are also grateful for the efforts of our Athletic Booster Committee, who meet and volunteer their time to provide opportunities for our student-athletes.
