Former Chiefs defensive back Marcus Peters, a native of McClymonds High School, took the helm as Mililani's first-year head coach in their 50-0 victory over the warriors. Despite the lopsided defeat, Peters remained optimistic and sought out a standout senior, Bless Cabrera-Hopkins, to commend his performance. The Warriors entered the season with 29 players in uniform and aim to secure the CIF 3A state championship.

McClymonds' pistol read-pass option game faltered, and Mililani led 29-0 at halftime. Jayzen Joseph and Hayden Bajet scored crucial touchdowns for the Warriors.
Leighton Magno's interception return sealed the 50-0 final score. The Warriors, boasting four state championships in school history, will face Foothill in Nevada next weekend, aiming for another state title.
