Wehiwa and Kuhio Aloy have made the long baseball journey from Wailuku, Hawaii, to Fayetteville, Ark., and they have their father, Jamie Aloy, to thank for that.
Wehiwa, who is a Golden Spikes finalist, and Kuhio, who has glossy numbers himself this season, provide the most unlikely connection possible, giving Arkansas baseball a heavy taste of Hawaii. The connection has a lot of Omaha roots, too, as the brothers travelled to the College World Series in 2019 to get the flavor of the sport’s biggest event.

Six years later, they have returned to Omaha and are a big part of what Arkansas is trying to do, which is win the program’s first national title. They not only are premier players, but they come with a nifty nickname: The Bash Braddahs. The nickname is a tribute to the original Bash Brothers, Mark McGwire and Jose Canseco, who were the power-hitting tandem of the Oakland A’s back in the day. McGwire and Canseco led the A’s to a World Series title in 1989, and now these Bash Braddahs from Hawaii are trying to lead Arkansas to a title in 2025.
“It’s kind of like a Hawaiian thing. Back home, using the word ‘braddahs’ instead of ‘brothers,’” Kuhio Aloy told the SEC Network.
Before Wednesday night’s showdown against LSU, with Arkansas playing to stay alive and force another matchup on Thursday, the Aloy brothers gave Hawaii another gift. They met with a couple young fans who flew all the way from Hawaii to Omaha to see them play live. It was a dream come true for the 3-year-old and 11-year-old, and then the brothers got busy trying to give those fans a victory.

They are a huge part of Arkansas’s push to a possible first national title, and they gave those young fans from their native Hawaii a moment they’ll never forget on Wednesday night.
