Another National Team...

Na Wahine Koa soccer team become national champions
John Veneri


Hawaii is home to yet another national champion...today a twelve group of girls from Laie did the trick in Chicago.

Twenty-four teams from six different pools with a handful of teams from Hawaii competed...

Na Wahine Koa from the North Shore defeated a team from Kailua to get into the finals... where they met Newport Beach of California..

A goal by Kahi Naeole and another by Rachelle Tailele in overtime lifted the Hawaii team to a 2-1 win...

The team was a perfect 8-and-0 throughout the 2006 Ayso Nationals...and bring home the gold medal on Thursday.
