Check out the polar bear eyeing a blocking sled while prowling around the Barrow High Whalers' field this week. James Brooks of the Fairbanks News-Miner, who authored a terrific piece last month on the team, emails that the Whalers are undefeated and can clinch a playoff berth Saturday with a victory at Monroe Catholic (midway through linked story).
As we all know, October playoff games in Barrow not only favor the home team, but put the frozen tundra of Green Bay to shame. The photo was taken by John Gleason of Barrow.
