Opening Night


It's full speed ahead to the crowning of state champions are the country. Of course, we're going to have to wait at least three month for the crowning of our first high school football champs, and that will come in Alaska. So it stands to reason that if Great North is the first to crown, it's also the first to start and things kicked-off last night with five games and will continue Saturday with a full slate of games.

The biggest surprise of the night was that that defending Big Schools champ South Anchorage was beaten by Chugiak 10-7. Actually it wasn't that big of a shock considering the Chugiak was ranked #2 in the state in the pre-season polls. For a complete wrap-up of the game you can click on our headline "Opening Night" to read the game story from the Anchorage Daily News.
