“As an opposing coach, I can say that Carvalho is the one person we always accounted for when he was on the field. What makes him special is he still made plays that swung the game in Kahuku’s favor. It’s one thing to have great stats, but it is special when every team knows he is getting the ball and he is still able to make plays.”
Matt Murakawa
Head Coach - head coach of Waianae High
