Playing in their last home games as Tigers were Jaxon Anderson, Bob Baker, Hayden Holmes, and Zayne Swope.
Both teams started off hot, scoring six points in the first 2:32 of the game. But then Kaden Koch got a three point play which seemed to spark the Shamrocks and make it 9-6. Aydan Gladstone cut it to 9-8, but then Brett Emig hit from the high post, Koch struck again, and Brett Emig scored in transition to make it 15-8 with 3:30 left in the quarter. Koch continued to carry the Shamrocks on his back throughout the first quarter, getting 13 points in the period as North Harrison led 21-12.
Last year, North Harrison led much of the way in Eagleville before Worth County used a big third quarter to pull in front and lead for the rest of the game. It looked like something similar might happen as Alex Rinehart hit a 3-pointer from the top of the key and added a transition basket to make it 21-17 to start the second. Wade Briggs hit a 3-pointer and Brett Emig added a free throw to make it 25-17, but then Aydan Gladstone kicked it out to Jackson Runde for three and Aydan Gladstone scored from the baseline to make it 25-22 at the 5:13 mark.
But then North Harrison responded with back to back jacks as Cruz Ury skipped one to Brett Emig for three, Kaden Koch kicked one out to Steven Willhite for another three, and Brett Emig added a steal, and North Harrison was back up double digits at 33-22 with 4:25 left. North Harrison continued to pull away for the remainder of the first half, leading 43-29 at the break, beating Worth County up and down the floor at will.
The Shamrocks continued to pull away in the third quarter as the bottom dropped out for Worth County. They started the period on a 16-2 run, and by the time the dust had settled just 4:08 into the period, North Harrison was in front 59-31. Willhite had 8 points in the period and Koch added another 7 as the Shamrocks led 64-35 after three.
