Boys Basketball Tournament 2013

Join Seldovia to cheer for the Seldovia Sea Otters as they battle Wasilla Lake, Kalskag and Nanwalek for the Tournament Championship this weekend! If you missed tonight’s games, you will have a chance to see our Otters play tomorrow and Saturday!
The early game this evening featured Wasilla Lake vs. Kalskag, and Wasilla Lake earned the win. Tonight’s 7:30pm game with the Otters against Nanwalek was exciting with many amazing shots, turnovers, fouls, rebounds, leg cramps, air balls, ally oops, free throws, steals, three-point shots, assists, calls on traveling, pushing, tons of dribbling, fast breaks, lay ups, charges, holds, intentional fouls, and lots of great sportsmanship as one of the Nanwalek players fouled out – and as a courtesy, we took one of our 5 guys out of play to keep the game fair! Nanwalek played a great game, with only 4 players, they all had to play every second of the game! We have had seasons like that too, so we can totally relate to the hard work, dedication and athleticism that goes into being a team of five!! In fact, we are dealing with that for our girls team this year, as we only have 4 girls from Seldovia and Kelsey from Nanwalek who makes our team complete – enabling us to have a basketball season with the girls. It is A LOT of hard work!
The game started out with Seldovia leading on the scoreboard, then Nanwalek got fired up and took over the lead through end of the first quarter, and all the way through the second quarter. During the third quarter, we went back and forth, and both teams fought hard to keep their lead on the scoreboard. In the 4th quarter, the Otters led and finally sealed the win at 81 to 69! Way to go Otters! Good game Eagles!
