WHEN THEIR PLAYING DAYS WERE OVER Tuesday, November 24 at 7:30 pm

This month on Long Story Short with Leslie Wilcox, we feature four athletes who found success in their sports – and beyond:

Known as the “Bull of Kalihi,” the late Skippa Diaz remains an icon at his alma mater Farrington High School, where he was an all-star lineman and later, a beloved teacher and head football coach. A tough guy with a soft heart, Diaz Skippa Diaz enjoyed teaching and recalled, “I’m walking downtown, somebody said ‘Coach, how you doing?’ And this kid I taught 30-something years ago, and they don’t forget you.”

Bob Apisa also was a sports star at Farrington. He was drafted into the NFL following back-to-back national titles as part of the Michigan State University football team, but suffered a career-ending injury before he had a chance to play professionally. A chance encounter led him to the film industry. “Well, I was comfortable with myself … I thought it was a new adventure,” said Apisa. Bob Apisa

Mahina Eleneki Hugo was a celebrated member of the 1987 University of Hawai‘i Wahine Volleyball national championship team. Later employed at La Pietra – Hawaii School for Girls, she rose to Head of School. She said sports and her education career weren’t so different: “You know, there’s challenges to be had, there’s discipline, there’s others to be considered on the team, but each person has to do their responsibility in order to make the organization work.” Mahina Eleneki Hugo

And being the talk of the town as a Punahou School football star in the 1950s was only a prelude for Al Harrington. He graduated from Stanford University and went on to a hyphenated career as an educator, actor (64 episodes as Detective Ben Kokua in the original Hawaii Five-O TV series) and Waikīkī showroom headliner. He says, “Sometimes we try to make things happen, and we don’t follow the pattern that is destined for us to follow.” Al Harrington
