The Knights 2002 season will be best remembered for its first NBC World Series appearance and two exciting come-from-behind wins at the Series. Aloha beat Sparta Miller (WI) and Crestwood (IL) and fought valiantly in defeat vs. top five finishers San Luis Obispo Blues (3rd place) and Beatrice Bruins (5th place). The 2002 team finished second in the PIL South with a 17-13 record and made a run at the Kamloops International Baseball Tournament (KIBT) title as it won all its winner's bracket games before losing the championship game to its archrival Seattle Studs. Aloha's second place finish was the Knights third at the KIBT and all three times the Knights made its way to the KIBT's championship game without a defeat and lost to the loser's bracket winner. For the first time in franchise history, the club did not finish with a winning record as the 2002 edition went 29-29 overall.
