Early Saturday Morning, the Eagles and T-Jacks were at it again with fur and feather flying. The much improved eagles again gave the T-jacks excellent competition. Both teams started slow reflecting the 9:00 am starting time and the first few minutes were riddled with missed shots, but after a short period of waking up, both teams found some rhythm.
Even though it was a low scoring game, this game was incredibly entertaining. King Cove edged Sand Point by 10 points, 51 to 41. The lead was never more than 12 points the entire game and the score at the end of the 3rd quarter was 35 to 29 with King Cove leading.
