In the ISFL, there are some pretty simple mascots out there that don't need that much explanation. You got your Otters, your Hawks, your Lions, etc. But, then you start to get to the ones that may need a bit of explanation, such as the Second Line, Wraiths, and Seawolves. And then you get to the weird ones. The Hahalua is certainly one of them, as, at a surface level, no one is really certain what a Hahalua is. It certainly sounds Hawaiian, and from the image it looks like a fish of some sort, but other than that, your best bet is to look up what a Hahalua is. Hawaiian Magazine says, “The name of the manta—hahalua—can be interpreted as ‘two breaths... ha, meaning breath, and lua, meaning two." What they are talking about is a stingray. Neat.
Now that we have a definition, lets talk about how dope this friggin mascot is. Looking at it, you see its beautiful, rich blue that does a good job of representing the Hawaiian Islands and Honolulu, and the blue waters that surround it. With that, it's angry eyes certainly intimidate their opponents, and it also, funnily enough, looks like it has a frown, or a really sweet mustache. As apart of the team, I don't know which one I want more.
So, there is my take on my mascot. Hopefully we will continue to make opponents fear what the "haha" may have against them :triumph:
