Led by Abraham Julius, the No. 6 seeded Islanders upset top seed Tanana to take the title.
Members of the Toksook Bay boys basketball team celebrate after defeating Tanana 51-47 in the Class 1A boys state championship basketball game at the Alaska Airlines Center in Anchorage on Saturday, March 19, 2022. But the Toksook Bay senior also walked out of the building a state champion.
“I was surprised the team could even hear me,” he said. “Yesterday they couldn’t hear me at all. I think I yelled a little too much and I lost my voice. I really wanted to win this so I gave it my all.”Julius’ all was enough for the Islanders, who upset No. 2 Lumen Christi on Friday. He scored 21 points to lead all scorers to deliver the title to the Western Alaska village.
