Falling one win short of their second DII crown for the second year in a row, the Royals, with head coach Charles Hiers at the helm, bring back all five starters and their top seven scorers overall as they look to get over the last hurdle this year.

Hanalani under the leadership of Hiers, the ILH DII Coach of the Year, returns the ILH DII Player of the Year, Ellana Klemp. Klemp averaged 15.5 points per game while knocking down 18 from long-range. She was also named the Most Outstanding Player of the 2024 HHSAA DII State Tournament.

Senior forward Piha‘eu Akiona, a member of the ILH 1st Team, brings her 8.1 ppg back to the squad with Tamlyn Celestino, ILH 2nd Team. Celestino (6.1 ppg), a junior guard, helps run the offense with Jayda Okuhara (7.8 ppg) & Jaenie Sniffen, who were both Honorable Mentions last year in the ILH.
