Midway through the season, the Cordova Wolverines remain undefeated in conference play.
On Feb. 10 and 11, CHS swept a series against Effie Kokrine in Fairbanks by finals of 79-50 and 78-60, improving to 4-0 in conference standings.
The same pair of Wolverines that have led the way throughout the season continued to dominate their scoring. Seniors Kaiden Graves and Christian Adams each had 25 points in the first game. In the rematch, Adams hit for 32 points, while Graves added 19.
So far this season, CHS has played only one weekend of hoops at home, topping Unalaska, Wasilla JV, and Scammon Bay to win the 38th Annual Tipoff on Jan. 16-18.
That will all change beginning on Feb. 21-22, when Cordova plays against conference opponents here at home for three consecutive weekends.
CHS faces Nenana first, followed by Tok on Feb. 28-29, and Glennallen on March 6-7. Due to travel costs with no ferry service, only Glennallen will be bringing JV boys.
District playoffs will be held in SuValley on March 12-14, with the winner and runner-up advancing to State at Anchorage the following weekend.
