Frantic Friday: A roundup of photos from a wild day of basketball

The Juneau Empire’s expanded coverage of the Region V tournament is made possible by Sealaska Corp. Thanks to this sponsorship, this article —and all 2023 Region V coverage — is available online without a subscription to the Empire.

The crowds packing the gym at Juneau’s Thunder Mountain High School for the third day of the Region V 2A/4A Tournament meant many late-comers found themselves in a standing-room only situation — not that anyone would want to stay seated for long given the action on the court.

Friday saw three overtime games and three teams claim Region V championships in a packed day of Southeast Alaska basketball.

Click the link up top to read the Empire’s coverage of those games, and scroll through this collection of photos to see sights from the day’s games.
