The Hawaii On3 Massey Ratings have released their top 25 rankings for Nov. 5, reflecting the results of the first weekend in November. While the lineup remains consistent with previous lists, several teams have shifted in rank. Here’s the updated look at the strongest Hawaii high school football teams as the state playoffs approach.

The On3 Massey Ratings, originally a recognized system during the BCS era, evaluates teams based on game outcomes, strength of schedule, and margin of victory. According to this model, two Hawaiian teams rank in the national top 100.

Key players included Zayden Alviar-Costa and Rusten Abang-Perez, who combined for 295 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Cal commit Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele also impressed with 32 completions, 473 yards, and six touchdowns. James Campbell will defend their perfect record against second-ranked Kahuku on Nov. 8.
