Anchorage Northern Knights Crewneck Sweatshirt

The Anchorage Northern Knights, based in Anchorage, Alaska, were the city's first pro sports team. They joined the Eastern Basketball Association in 1977, played on in the Continental Basketball Association (CBA), and won the CBA title in 1980 by beating Rochester in seven games, a first for an Alaskan pro team.

The Knights played at West High School and went 24-7 in their first season, the best record in the league. The budget ran near $300,000 a year, and for the first two seasons the club paid to fly visiting teams north. After a poor 1981-82 season and new league travel rules, the team sold its franchise back to the CBA in 1982.
