The Eagles avenged their first loss of the season on the road against East while the top-seeded Lynx stayed undefeated by beating Bartlett again in a rematch of the season-opener.
ByTenari Atisanoe-Harmon, of the Bettye Davis East High Thunderbirds, comes in for the tackle as Zephaniah Sailele, of the West Eagles, tries to fend him off, at West High in Anchorage on Friday, August 23, 2024.
What began as a defensive battle only saw six points scored in the first half. Those were scored on a six-yard run for West senior running back Zephaniah Sailele, the first of his hat trick day. It was back-to-back big plays on special teams that sparked the second-half scoring frenzy for West. “My success comes from God,” he said. “He helps me with everything and my Kings put in some great work, my linemen are really good.”
“Selfishly, I get to spend one more week with these guys as their head coach for the year 2024 and that’s my victory,” Davis said. “Now, we still have work to do and more lessons to learn.”Thomas Adams looks to clear a path for Dimond High Quarterback Cayden Pili as he runs the sidelines at Dimond High in Anchorage on Friday, August 16, 2024. Bartlett defenders Makisi Poleo and Sam Masalosalo, move in to make the stop short of the goal line.
“The boys came out hard and I felt like there were a couple unlucky plays and calls that kind of cost us in the first half from getting a little bit more,” Dimond head coach Brian Yim said. “We came out in the second half, our defense has been playing lights out all year, they got that going and we kind of leaned on the big boys inside to put together some runs inside and it worked out.”
