Waianae’s Kana’i Mauga made his regular season NFL debut on Sunday, registering a tackle for the Las Vegas Raiders in a 24-17 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Despite the loss, Mauga’s moment was a big win for Waianae. The 2017 consensus state Defensive Player of the Year became just the third Waianae alumnus to appear in an NFL regular season game, joining Tom Tuinei (1980) and Kurt Gouveia (1987-1999).
