H.S. Boys Tournament
On March 18, the H.S. boys basketball team was in Chevak for our 1998 Spring tournament. There were nine teams, and 13 games were played.
We had only five players on our team: Jon B., Dave A., Will F.,Richard B., and MauriceT. The first day no games were played because we were waiting for the other teams to come in. The first team we played was the Saint Mary's Eagles. We beat them by two points. The next day we played the HPB Warriors and lost. Later the same day, we played the AUK Braves and lost again. That was the last game we played because we were eliminated. We stayed until the last game, though, because some of our team wanted to watch the championship game.
The championship game was between the Chevak Comets and the Hooper Bay Warriors. Half of the bleachers were filled with fans from Hooper Bay. Hooper Bay won the game by one point.
Right after the last game they had the awards ceremony. 1st place went to Hooper Bay, 2nd place went to the Chevak Comets, and 3rd place went to the Emmonak Huskies. It was a great tournament!

H.S. Girls Tournament
Between March 16 and 18, the Hooper Bay Warriors hosted the 1997-98 H.S. Girls Basketball Tournament. Altogether there were a total of 10 teams, and 14 games were played. Our team, Charlotte A.,Lorah O.,Cheryl H.,Tatiana S.,Tassie F.,Rose F. and Nus S., played our first game against RSM/St. Mary's Eagles (a combined team). Unfortunately, we lost the game by 25 points. We didn't expect to play another game the same night, but they scheduled us to play the Pilot Station (PQS) Kings. This game was a close one. Although we were playing our hardest, we lost the game by one point. 64-65. And, since it was a double elimination we were out of the tournament.
Even though we didn't have any reason to stay the remaining two days, we did. We cheered for all the other teams and wished we were the ones playing. We also did all our assigned chores
Then, night three, game 14 came. It was the championship game between the Hooper Bay Warriors and the Chevak Comets. There were many fans from both villages and the game was close. But, someone had to win. The Hooper Bay Warriors won the game 81-80.
Immediately following the championship game, the awards ceremony was held. The Hooper Bay Warriors came in 1st, the Chevak Comets 2nd, and the RSM/St. Mary's Eagles came in 3rd. The team Academic Award went to Chevak for having the highest GPA average. The Coach of the Year award went to Lena Ferguson from Chevak. The Sportsmanship award went to us, the Marshall Mustangs. At the moment our team was called up to receive the award, we were all glad we stayed. Individual all-stars of the tournament were: Karen Hale (HPB), Helen Greene (PQS), Miranda Dizon (St. Mary's), Angelique Ulroan (CHVK), Panita Pingayuk (CHVK), Jenee Westlock (EMO), Audrey Alstrom (AUK), Marilyn Bell (HPB), Esther Simon (SOB) and Vanessa Peterson (MTV).
