Both Mater Dei and St. John Bosco compete in the Trinity League in Southern California.
The Trojans went 40 years without playing a game against a mainland team until the Trojans lost to Liberty (Nev.) in 2015, 76-53.
Mililani head coach Rod York, who earned his 100th career victory with the Trojans earlier this season, is 2-4 against mainland opponents in his 12-year tenure. This is the fourth trip he’s taken the team on and first since they lost at St. John Bosco 52-14 in 2018.
The Trojans are led by two-way senior Gavin Hunter, an Arizona commit, who has a team-best five touchdown receptions. Mililani is 4-1 this season with its one loss coming to Mission Viejo (Calif.), 34-21.
The Monarchs are the defending national champions while St. John Brosco last won it all in 2019.
Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. Hawaii time.
