On the next play, Robinson scored on a 96-yard run to put Lincoln ahead 30-14 with 6:15 remaining in the quarter.<\/p>\n
\u201cEarlier in the game, my coach actually got on me. We tipped the rock. I missed it the first time, I had to make a play the second time,\u201d Williams said of the interception. \u201cWhen the play comes to you, you just have to make the play and celebrate with your guys.\u201d<\/p>\n
Williams made an impact on special teams on the Buffanblu\u2019s next drive by blocking a punt and returning it two yards for a touchdown, which put the Hornets ahead 37-14 with 4:48 remaining in the third.<\/p>\n
\u201cI saw the play. I know I can block stuff, I\u2019m all over the field. As soon as I saw it, I went for it,\u201d Williams said.<\/p>\n
Said Lincoln coach David Dunn: \u201cThose were huge plays from (Williams). Concentrating to make the interception and blocking that kick and picking it up and scoring.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Buffanblu (1-2) cut the deficit to 37-21 on Bryce Tomas\u2019 6-yard run with 1:05 to go in the third, and to 37-29 on Hunter Fujikawa\u2019s 4-yard pass to Parker Noland with 11 seconds remaining in the third. Fujikawa ran in the two-point conversion.<\/p>\n
The second touchdown came one play after Dane Kellner\u2019s interception and 52-yard return.<\/p>\n
Then Lincoln, of San Diego, took control in the fourth.<\/p>\n
The Hornets went up 44-29 on Junior Curtis\u2019 1-yard run with 10:29 remaining. The drive was only 43 yards because the Buffanblu were penalized on the kickoff for unsportsmanlike conduct after their touchdown pass.<\/p>\n
The Hornets (1-0) went ahead 51-29 on Jordan Roa\u2019s 13-yard pass to Courtney Miller-Thompson with 4:39 remaining.<\/p>\n
Lincoln capped the scoring on Kainan Manna\u2019s 10-yard pass to Jordan Lewis with 1:02 to go.<\/p>\n
Punahou\u2019s Fujikawa completed 18 of 41 passes for 208 yards, and Keola Ane caught seven passes for 114 yards.<\/p>\n
\u201cPunahou is a good team. They have good fight,\u201d Dunn said.<\/p>\n
The Hornets took a 7-0 lead on their second possession on Cam Joy\u2019s 24-yard run off the left side with 6:06 left in the first quarter. Nunez made the PAT kick.<\/p>\n
The Buffanblu, ranked No. 7 in the Star-Advertiser poll, tied it at 7-7 with 2:56 remaining on Aaron Johnson\u2019s 2-yard run up the middle and Tyler Endo\u2019s PAT kick.<\/p>\n
Lincoln was penalized for encroachment on fourth-and-short, roughing the passer, unsportsmanlike conduct and facemask on the drive.<\/p>\n
The Hornets went up 13-7 on Curtis\u2019 1-yard run with 10:18 left before halftime. Roa extended the drive with a 9-yard quarterback keeper on fourth-and-3, which placed the ball at the Buffanblu 9.<\/p>\n
The drive was set up by Jamari Sherell\u2019s interception and 37-yard return to the 22.<\/p>\n
Punahou went up 14-13 with a four-play, 47-yard drive, capped by Fujikawa\u2019s 9-yard pass to Brady Lau with 8:35 remaining before halftime.<\/p>\n
Lincoln retook the lead at 20-14 on Robinson\u2019s 2-yard run with 6:03 left in the half. The drive consisted of 11 plays and took only 2:32 off the clock.<\/p>\n
The Hornets went up 23-14 on the first possession of the second half on Nunez\u2019s 29-yard field goal.<\/p>\n
