The Last Yellow Flag

The Service High School Cougars are the statewide football champions for large schools.

The Cougars beat the South Anchorage Wolverines on Saturday for the First National Bowl trophy on a score of 37 to 23.  It capped an undefeated season for the Cougars.

A Juneau man was the head referee for the championship game played at Chugiak’s Tom Huffer Stadium.   After officiating football and soft ball games for 37 years – most of those in Alaska — Guy Warren is retiring. The Alaska Schools Activities Association gave him the privilege to sport the white cap, leading the team of officials at the game.

Rosemarie Alexander from member station KTOO joins Warren in a look back at his career as an official.
