2024 Game Highlights

The 2024 Polynesian Bowl was played at Kūnuiākea Stadium on the Kamehameha Kapālama campus on Friday, January 19. Team Makai (Ocean, blue jerseys) came away with a 28-17 victory over Team Mauka (Mountain, white jerseys) which was broadcast live on NFL Network.

Strong play by offensive MVP WR Mike Matthews, and by defensive MVP DL David Stone helped the Mike Zimmer-coached Team Makai to a 28-17 win over Marvin Lewis-coached Team Mauka in the 2024 Polynesian Bowl.

Team Mauka had a 17-0 lead at halftime with QB Isaac Wilson completing his first 11 attempts. In the second half, Team Makai QB Dylan Raiola solidified himself as the top quarterback prospect in the 2024 class throwing for 111 yards, including a 40 yard TD to offensive MVP Mike Matthews. Defensive MVP David Stone had a big fumble recovery returned for a TD in the 4th Quarter to complete Team Makai’s comeback and put the game out of reach for Team Mauka.
