  • April 4th, Ninilchik beats Tri Valley 68-24. Molly Bosick dumped in 19, incl. a tre, and Whitney added 15, incl. a tre. Brieanna Leman scored 3 tres. Other scorers: Amanda Peterson - 2, Katie Moerlein - 7 (incl. a tre), Kelsey Deiman - 6 (2 three point buckets), Amanda Matson - 2, Janelle Moerlein - 4, Maria Johnson - 2, Dylan McKee - 2.


  • Ninilchik beats Kake in this semi-final game, 38-32. Molly scores 16, Whitney - 8, Amanda Matson - 6, Janelle - 4, Brie - 2, Kelsey - 2. Kake's slowdown approach countered Ninilchik's high tempo offense and the T Birds switched defenses from zone to man to man, making the Wolverines miss attempts from the perimeter, but it wasn't enough to stop the Wolverines from winning and moving on to the Championship game.


  • Ninilchik overpowered Yakutat on both ends of the court to beat them 35-15. Molly Bosick chipped in 12 points and grabbed 7 rebounds while Whitney put in 8 pts. and had 6 assists. Leman didn't force shots and got her teammates involved, making fine decisions at point guard while facing Yakutat's box-and-one defense designed to stop her. She held Yakutat's main shooter scoreless, allowing her only one field goal attempt.


    Ninilchik Lady Wolverines are the only Alaskan 2A Girl's Team so far to have a 3 PEAT!! They are also now the winningest 2A Girl's team in the history of Girl's 2A Ball in Alaska, winning 5 Championships in the past 7 years....GO WOLVERINES!!!!
