In an athletic contest up and down the court Kake held off Ketchikan 82-77 behind 24 points from Ethan Kadake as four players hit double figures, including Simon Friday who hit four past the arc in the second quarter. Kadake scored 16 points in the first half and Tracy Jackson scored all 15 of his in the second.

The least number of scores in the book went to one of the biggest in the game as Jonah Davis was a mountain in the middle disrupting a slashing and cutting Ketchikan team.

“It means a lot for us personally,” Davis said of getting the first game win. “We’re such a young group of guys, we’ve been that way for a few years. It’s hard for us to gain this kind of momentum. So it feels pretty good to get a win and hopefully we can keep the ball rolling.”

Davis noted the impact of their floor general Tracy Jackson.
