Caleb Duhay and Tanner Tokunaga combined on a two-hitter and Pikai Winchester hit a home run to lift Waipi'o to a 3-1 victory over Connecticut in their opener of pool play at the Little League World Series in South Williamsport, Pa.

Waipi'o has the day off tomorrow and plays Tampa, Fla. (1-0), in pool play on Sunday.

Duhay allowed just one hit in five innings.

Christian Donahue's hustle led to the decisive run.

Donahue singled in the fourth and advanced to second on a passed ball. Catcher Anthony Searles threw the ball back to pitcher Eddie Kochiss, though time was never called and Kochiss didn't notice Donahue advancing to third. Donahue then scored on a wild pitch to break the 1-1 deadlock.
