Dylan Farias scored 18 points and Kenny Ellis and Corey Lau added 13 each to lead Kailua to a 53-36 win over top-seeded Castle in tonight's championship game of the Hawaiian Airlines/Hawai'i High School Athletic Association Division II Boys Basketball State Championships at Neal Blaisdell Arena.

Kailua (18-3), unseeded in the state tournament and the O'ahu Interscholastic Association White runner-up, had to win four straight games in four days to capture the school's third state title and first at the Division II level. The Surfriders did so by beating three seeded teams. The Surfriders won state titles in 1972 and 1982 when there was only a one-division format.

Michael Santos scored nine points for Castle (17-3) and Nick Tuamoheloa and Brent Roberts added six points each. Castle defeated Kailua on Feb. 28 to win the O'ahu Interscholastic Association White Division title and the teams went 3-3 this season.
