Terrence Titus of Walter Northway (Northway, Alaska) set an Alaska single-game scoring record with 82 points on Jan. 31 as the Warriors topped Buckland 119-109.

Titus went 33 of 55 from the field with 10 made 3-pointers, according to Alaska Sports Report. He also added eight rebounds, four assists and four steals.

The junior had 24 points by the end of the first quarter and then added 15 in the second. Titus went off in the third quarter for 27 points and finished with 16 points in the final period to get to 82.

"It was pretty close throughout the whole game," Walter Northway head coach Jamey Titus and Terrence's father told MaxPreps. "Terrence is a good all-around leader, he encourages them and he gets the team going."

Titus is averaging 40 points this season and also had a 54-point performance this year for the 7-4 Warriors. He scored his 1,000th career point last year as a sophomore.

On the same night Titus went for 82, Ian Weyanna of James C Isabell (Teller) also had a monster game with 61 points in a 96-42 win over Aniguiin (Elim). He's averaging 44.8 points per night, according to the Alaska Sports Report.

The previous Alaska record was 74 points set by Skylar Webb of Tok in 2009. Only seven players, including Titus and Weyanna, have gone for more than 60 points in state history. 

All-Star Carlos Boozer of Juneau-Douglas (Juneau) and NCAA and NBA champion Mario Chalmers of Bartlett (Anchorage) are two of the notable names in Alaska high school basketball history.
