Pauls team lost in OT to Vashon. Harris carried Niagra with his "creative passing" and physical play inside, yet he even stepped out and hit a 3 early in the game. He lost his footing on a shot that would have sealed it in regulation. He finished with 25 points, 11 boards, and 5 assists.

PRIMETIME SHOOTOUT NOTEBOOK

Basically, Harris showed he is the definition of toughness and hustle in high school basketball. A great passer, if not the best passer in the junior class, showed great vision and a knack for delivering the ball.

11. Niagara Falls (Niagara Falls, N.Y.) 20-1 (11)

The Wolverines opened up their Section 6 playoffs with a 95-59 romp of

Lancaster. Their only loss was in overtime to Vashon two weeks ago at the

Prime Time Shootout and Vashon fans in particular are now rooting for

Niagara Falls to take it all the way to a New York state title.

Harris is having a great season.
