The King Keakulike girls' soccer team won't have much time to rest on their laurels.
A pair of early goals by Mia Minkler lifted Kekaulike to a 2-1 victory over fourth-seeded Hilo on Thursday and earned Na Alii a berth in the semifinals of the state Division-I soccer tournament.
Kekaulike faces a huge challenge in today's 5 p.m. match against three-time defending champ and top-seeded Kamehameha-Kapalama, which eased to a 3-0 quarterfinal victory over Kapolei.
In other Division-I action yesterday, MIL champion and third-seeded Kamehameha-Maui jumped out to a quick lead on Jalisa Chong Kee's goal less than two minutes into the match.
But Punahou responded with a series of unanswered goals – including a pair by Karli Look -- for a 4-1 victory.
