The Eielson boys rallied to a fourth-quarter comeback Friday in loser's bracket action at the Lime Solar/Pepsi Invitational at Anchorage Christian.
The Ravens trailed for most of the game, but they kept it close enough to make a move in the fourth quarter and grab the victory.
Antonio Griffith paced Eielson with 21 points and Matthew Scarboro added 15 — 12 coming in the first half to keep the game close.
The late winner's bracket games were the Valdez girls and boys teams versus Barrow and the Bethel girls and boys teams against ACS.
The three-day tournament of mostly 3A schools concludes Saturday at ACS.
