Nineteen teams from Hawai'i, both boys and girls in divisions from under-12 to under-19, are competing in a three-game preliminary round that runs through tomorrow.

On the boys side, the HSC Bulls under-17 and under-18 teams won. For the girls, Leahi Premier won its under-13, under-16 and under-18 games.
