Radford's Charles Seanior led O'ahu scorers during the regular season with a 16.8 average, but Rams coach Kai Enos — the Coach of the Year — also praised Seanior for his leadership and defense.

Radford High School's boys basketball team went 10-0 in the O'ahu Interscholastic Association's Western Division, only to be knocked out of the league playoffs and state tournament contention by a quarterfinal loss to Kalaheo.

But all was not lost in the Rams' postseason. Radford swept top honors on the OIA West all-star team, with Charles Seanior taking Player of the Year honors and Kai Enos winning Coach of the Year accolades.

Seanior, a 5-10 senior wing, led all O'ahu scorers during the regular season with a 16.8 points-per-game average. But Enos said Seanior did more than just fill up the basket.

"He was our main offensive weapon, and when teams tried to take him away, we had a hard time," Enos said. "But he also was our leader, a good ball-handler who could also play defense"

Seanior is joined on the West's all-star first team by Leilehua's Andrew Talaeai (13.6 ppg) and Zac Rivera (12.7 ppg), and Pearl City seniors Corey Tavares (11.1 ppg) and Kapena Wong (11.3 ppg).

Talaeai, a senior, and Rivera, a junior, helped the Mules go 9-1 and take second in the West. Tavares and Wong helped the Chargers (8-2) take third.
