In this episode of Alaska Sports Talk, we dive into a jam-packed weekend of sports action and a little weather mystery for good measure! The Anchorage Wolverines and the Fairbanks Ice Dogs are locked in a fierce battle for playoff positioning — who will come out on top as the #2 seed heading into their first-round clash? We break down the stakes, scenarios, and what fans can expect from this electric rivalry.

Then we hit the track with results from the Big C Relays, where the Chugiak Girls Track & Field team is turning heads and turning in blazing times — could this be one of the fastest squads in the state?

And finally, we shift gears to the great Alaska weather debate: where is the official snow depth measured in Anchorage? AST's mission to get Jackie Purcell on the pod soon!

In this jam-packed episode of Alaska Sports Talk, Keaton and Isaiah dive into the wild ride that was the 2025 ASAA March Madness Alaska! We’re breaking down the top teams, championship showdowns, and jaw-dropping performances that lit up the court. Attendance was off the charts, and the NFHS Network numbers? Let’s just say the whole state and lots of the Lower 48 was watching!

Then it’s time to talk shot clock. Will 4A hoops finally get the 35-second countdown next season? It’s in the plan... but with school budget issues looming, we’ll talk about whether this game-changer is actually on the way.

On the ice, the Anchorage Wolverines and Fairbanks Ice Dogs have both clinched playoff spots—but who’s gonna grab that 2-seed? It’s a tight race, and with Anchorage hosting 3 of their final 4 games starting this Saturday, it’s must-watch hockey.

Plus, the UAA Women’s Basketball squad made it to the NCAA DII Tournament! But… they’re facing a conference rival in Round 1?! Keaton has thoughts, and he’s not holding back!

Tune in for all this and more, including fun updates, future matchups, and a few surprising tidbits you won’t want to miss!
