The Kodiak Boys won the ASAA State meet and it took 6 sentences into the article to find out that fact.  Yes, it is newsworthy to mention that the 7 year DHS reign has ended, but not at the expense of the athletes who put forth a superior effort to take that title away!  It's no small wonder why the rural communities in our great State feel jilted by the Anchorage media when they don't get their due props, as is the case here.  Congrats to the Kodiak Bears Boys and to the Dimond Lynx Girls for their fantastic team efforts!
