'Iff' MlEDirOfJ C6 Sunday, January 23, 2000 TheHonoluiuAuverfiser Hula Bowl: Game ends tied Yamini of Iowa. "We at least wanted to make a game of it" Yamini, a 6-foot-3, 190-pound last-minute addition to the game, played a major role in the Kai's rally. He caught seven of his Hula Bowl-record 12 receptions in the second half, and induced a blatant pass interference penalty on the game-tying drive late in the contest. He finished with 115 yards and was named the Most Valuable Player for the Kai team. "I was just running crisp routes," said Yamini.

"I was trying to threaten them with my speed, but their (defensive backs) were playing off the line, so we were just going with short routes underneath." Minnesota running back Thomas Hamer scored the second of his two touchdown runs both from 3 yards out with 3:15 remaining. Oregon's Nathan Villegas made the point after to tie the score, 28-28. "We got complacent in the second half and let them get back in it," said Bulger. "So when we got the ball that last time, we wanted take chances and make something happen." To be sure, Bulger's second pass of the final drive was tipped high into the air after a collision between Montgomerie and Kai defensive back Wade Davis of Weber State. It fell into the arms of Texas receiver Chris Cole, who FROM PAGE CI probably the best way to end an all-star game." It was certainly fitting yesterday, as the teams traded 21 -point halves.

The Aina stormed to a 21-7 lead in the first half as three different running backs Chad Richardson of Rice, Darell Price of UCLA and Curtis Keaton of James Madison each scored on 1-yard plunges. Stanford quarterback Todd Husak, who was named the Aina's most valuable player, completed eight of 12 passes for 115 yards in the second quarter alone. The Kai's lone score of the first half came early in the second quarter when Heisman Trophy-winning running back Ron Dayne of Wisconsin scored on a 9-yard rumble. Dayne played a limited role, mostly in the first half, and finished with 21 yards rushing on six carries with one reception for 10 yards. The Aina increased the lead to 28-7 early in the second half when West Virginia quarterback Marc Bulger threw a 29-yard strike to Duke's Scottie Montgomerie.

The only touchdown pass of the game came with 10:56 remaining in the third quarter. The Aina would not score after that. "We got down a little bit, but we got together and said, We didn't come all the way to Maui just for a said Kai receiver Bashir BRUCE ASATO The Honolulu Advertiser Kai team scores on a three-yard run TopQBs lead North to Senior Bowl win Advertiser News Services MOBILE, Ala. The North's quarterback talent was simply too much for the South to overcome in yesterday's Senior BowL The game's Most Valuable Player, Chad Pennington of Marshall, engineered a drive for the tying touchdown in the fourth quarter and Louisville's Chris Redman later led a drive for the game-winning field goal as the North rallied for a 24-21 victory at Ladd-Peebles Stadium. Pennington turned in a near-perfect day, completing 11 of 14 passes for 92 yards, including a 4-yard touchdown pass to UCLA's Danny Farmer in the first quarter.

With the North trailing 2 1-14 with 2:34 left in the third quarter, Pennington completed five of his next six passes moving his team to the South 2 where Michigan fullback Aaron Shea scored on a 2-yard run on the second play of the fourth quarter. Pennington's last two completions of the drive both were to halfback Ibn Green of Louisville for gains of 13 and 18 yards. "As a quarterback you have nothing but Pennington said, "because you know these guys are going tq make plays behind you." The North got the ball back at its own 34 with 12: 17 left and Redman, who completed 12 of 20 passes for 134 yards in the game, keyed an impressive drive that erased 7:02 off the clock. His passes of 18 and 16 yards to Green and Arizona's Dennis Northcutt moved the North into South territory. His yard pass to Farmer on fourth-; and-11 from the South 33 set up a 28-yard field goal from Michigan State's Paul Edinger to win the game.

Arizona State's J.R. Redmond, the offensive MVP for the South team, finished with 61 yards on 10 carries. He rushed seven times for 51 yards during a 89-yard drive that tied the game in the se ond quarter. "Twenty years from now, nobody will remember how it was tied. They'll just see the tie," Renes said.

Late addition turns out to be good news for Kai team Minnesota's Thomas Hamner of the then broke away for a 63-yard gain before getting tackled by Wyoming defensive back Trent Gamble at the Kai 17-yard line. After the Aina moved the ball to the 8-yard line and the clock down to three seconds, Kibble came on for the potential game-winning kick. "There are too many competitors on the field to just let it go," said Yamini, who was one of the Kai's designated jump-blockers. "We didn't really say to each other, 'Let's rush in and block it' But you knew everybody was thinking it" tempt to learn some of the Hawaiian culture.

He purchased a ukulele earlier in the week and took brief lessons from Hawaii defensive lineman Tony TuiotL "That's not going so well, though," said Yamini, with a laugh. 'My Dog Has Fleas' is as far as I got." Rainbow report Hawaii quarterback Dan Robinson did not play a single down for the Kai team because of an injured throwing (right) shoulder. "I just wasn't ready to go," he said. "It was probably the longest and hardest week of football for me because I could only sit and watch." Tuioti and fellow Rainbows Quincy LeJay and Andy Phillips did see action for the Kai team. Tuioti registered two tackles; LeJay, who started at cornerback, had four tackles.

Phillips was impressive while playing approximately half the game at offensive guard. in the fourth quarter.

Aina defense. Young, who is 6-4 and a solid 274 pounds, was named Defensive Player of the Game yesterday after recording two of the Aina's four sacks and consistently rushing his way into the Kai backfield. "I don't think I ever had two sacks in a game at UTEP," he said. "So this was big for me." High school honors Some of the nation's best high school football players were in attendance at the Hula Bowl as guests of Rivals.com. After the game, the players were placed on a live internet broadcast and announced as the Rivals.com All-America team.

Seventeen of the 22 players named to the team were on Maui, including D.J.

What's more, Yamini induced UCLA's Eric Whitfield into a pass-interference penalty to keep the drive flowing. As Kai quarterback Billy Volek of Fresno State put it: "He's tall and fast and he can catch the ball.

That's about everything you look for in a receiver." Because of his late travel plans, Yamini was not able to pack his Iowa equipment in time. Instead, he practiced with a borrowed helmet and shoulder pads last week. His Hawkeye helmet did not arrive until yesterday morning. "That was a big relief," he said. "I was kind of worried that I would have to play with that plain white helmet I was wearing in practice.

At least I got to represent my school" Yamini also took advantage of his first trip to Maui with an at- 1 1' fjfff ALL DVD'S 40 OFF By Dayton Morinaga Advertiser Staff Writer The addition of receiver Bashir Yamini to the roster was definitely good news for the Kai team in yesterday's Rivals.com Hula Bowl. Yamini, whose name means "bearer of good news" in Islamic, was one of the last additions to the game as a replacement for Syracuse's Quinton Spotwood Yamini said he learned of his selection on Jan, 15, and was given less than 24 hours to prepare for a trip to Maui. "I didn't really have time to think about it," said Yamini, who is 6 feet 3 and 190 pounds. "So I wasn't really anticipating anything. I just wanted to come and have fun and maybe make an impression." He did that, catching a Hula Bowl-record 12 passes for 115 yards.

He broke the previous mark of 10 receptions, last set by Al Toon of Wisconsin in 1985. Even more impressive, seven of his receptions came in the second half, when his team rallied from a 2 1-point deficit.
