Mililani’s Moment: Trojans Capture First-Ever State Baseball Title
The Mililani Trojans are state champions for the first time in program history.
Mililani defeated PAC-5, 1-0, in a dramatic walk-off victory Saturday night to win the Wally Yonamine Foundation/HHSAA Division I Baseball State Championship.
After six scoreless innings at Les Murakami Stadium, the Trojans broke through in the bottom of the seventh when Koa Marzo Jr. delivered the game-winning hit to score Jake Nishimoto and spark the celebration.
Ezra Ugale turned in a complete-game shutout for Mililani, allowing four hits while striking out four to cap a dominant tournament run.
The Trojans finished the season 16-2 and became the first OIA team to win the Division I baseball state title since 2015. PAC-5 ended its memorable season at 12-5 after making its first Division I championship appearance.
