Harris Breaks School Single-Season Scoring Record, Tigers Top O'Fallon

O'FALLON - On a night where senior forward Syd Harris broke the Edwardsville school record for most points in a season, senior forward Emma Garner also tied her season-high with 12 points in the Tigers' 50-39 win over O'Fallon at the OTHS Panther Dome. Harris has 542 points on the season, an all-time Tigers' girls basketball best.

Harris, who ended up with 14 points on the night, hit on a three with 2:05 left in the second quarter to break the record. And Garner and senior guard Macy Silvey stepped up to hit big baskets in the second half to help keep the Panthers at bay.

Garner hit back-to-back shots to start the second half, then did the same in the fourth to give the Tigers a 43-34 lead, and it helped make a big difference in the outcome.
