A Family Affair with the Heimulis Part 1

Join host Lauren McClain on this week’s episode of Royal Legacy! We're thrilled to have a special roundtable featuring the 1984 National Champion, "Turbo Tongan" Lakei Heimuli, alongside his sons — BYUtv Sports Producer Hema and former Stanford and BYU fullback Houston. Dive into the Heimuli family dynamics with us, from their tradition of "H" names to insights on family dinners and football's role in their upbringing. Lakei discusses his storied career at BYU under Coach LaVell Edwards, sharing reflections and unforgettable stories. We'll also explore the profound impact of BYU on the Heimuli family, their close-knit ties, and how BYU's Polynesian pipeline and Coach Kalani Sitake hold special significance for them.
