Kahuku lineman Tuipulotu will go to Arizona

Advertiser Staff

All-State defensive lineman Kaniela Tuipulotu accepted a football scholarship Wednesday from the University of Arizona.

"I went with my gut instinct," Tuipulotu said.

Tuipulotu, who was named to the 2006 Advertiser All-State first team, also received offers from Hawaii, Utah and Oregon State.

"I took a look at UH last week," he said. "I enjoyed my time there, but it was better for me to go off island."
