Mililani football coach Millwood steps down

By Wes Nakama
Advertiser Staff Writer

James Millwood, who had more career victories than any active O'ahu Interscholastic Association football coach, has stepped down after 13 seasons at the Mililani helm.

Millwood has four children ages 6 through 15, all of whom are active in sports. He cited family time as one reason for deciding to leave the Trojans program he had transformed into a perennial OIA championship contender.

"(Coaching football) is a year-round job, and there's so many other things I want to do right now," said Millwood, who also teaches at Mililani. "I thought about staying one more year, but after the (Hawaii Union Builders) all-star game and Christmas, a lot of things came into play."
