Bio

Kenny Talanoa was a three-sport athlete at El Segundo High School, excelling in baseball, basketball and football. He received All-Star recognition in all three. He received a football scholarship to the University of Hawaii but after a red shirt year he returned home to help support his family and play for the Warriors. In his two years at El Camino College, Kenny developed into one of the fiercest and most dominating defensive linemen in the country. His fourth quarter hit on Long Beach's quarterback in 1992 remains one of the most memorable hits in Warrior football history.

Kenny received a scholarship to Arizona State University where he started for the Sun Devils in 1993 and 1994. After his collegiate playing days, Kenny moved on to professional football, playing three seasons in the NFL with the Redskins and Broncos and then nine years in the Arena Football League. Kenny is currently serving as an assistant coach for the Warriors where he is coaching the defensive line. In his several years of coaching he has produced numerous All Conference players and many have received Division I scholarships.
