Lady Kings WIN, Boys lose out
For the first time in 8 years the Ketchikan Lady Kings basketball team has won their Region and are headed for the Girls State Tournament. The game was one of the best games I listen to all year. The team come out very cold to begin with, letting the ladies from Juneau-Douglas have a 12 point lead, but then the Lady Kings came a live and closed the lead to just 2 pts. at half time. In the third quarter the girls took command of the game and never looked back. The Lady Kings were on fire the whole 2nd half, playing very tough on defense, causing J-D to turn the ball over time and time again. The kings were making some amazing shots and it seemed they were hitting the 3pt. shots at will. They increased their lead and poured it on to finish strong. I want to congratulate them on a job well done all season and to wish them the best of luck when they go to the State Tournament. Go LADY KINGS!!!!
I'm sorry to say that the K-High Boys didn't fair near as well. There are only 2 teams in their Region, K-High and Juneau-Douglas. They played a best of 3 tournament and the J-D Crimson Bears took the tournament 2 games to none. Better luck next year boys.
Mother Nature is still playing games with us, and dropped about 2" of snow over night again. Will this ever end? I really have had enough of winter and am more then ready for Spring.
Till next time, K-townking
