HHSAA postpones quarterfinal matches due to severe weather
The Hawaiʻi High School Athletic Association has announced the postponement of all quarterfinal matches scheduled for this afternoon due to hazardous weather conditions and the forecast for the remainder of the day. Reports of power outages and facility closures at some match sites further necessitated the decision.
“The safety of all participants, coaches, and supporters is our utmost priority,” said HHSAA spokesperson Natalie Iwamoto. “This decision was made with that in mind, and we appreciate everyone’s understanding as we navigate this fluid situation.”
The HHSAA is currently working to reschedule the affected matches. A follow-up announcement detailing the new schedule, including dates and locations for the rescheduled quarterfinal matches, will be released later today.
The HHSAA thanks its member schools, athletes, coaches, and fans for their cooperation and patience during this time.
