Al Sokaitis and some Alaskan high school coaches brought Alaskan seniors who are trying to play college ball, to Washington to play in front of college coaches!  At least half of these kids have since signed at colleges to play!

The “Challenge Life” program is took a large group (20 – 25) of Alaska’s top senior basketball players to Washington, April 16th – 19th. The goal of the trip is to provide the young men with an opportunity to demonstrate their skill to a gathering of 70 or more college coaches. Many of Alaska’s elite hoopsters fall victim to geography when it comes to being recruited. “Challenge Life” is hoping to change that by proving a stage for Alaska’s best. Players from Ketchikan to Point Hope and every hoop hotbed in between will be joining the “Challenge Life” travel team. The only cost to the players was airfare as “Challenge Life” made the trip affordable to all.
