Katie Schickling had 15 points, Alyssa Gibson 15 and Felicia Shaner 14 as NCC placed four players in double figures.

"Much better effort today," remarked Head Coach Art Wolfe, "offensively we definitely played better than we did at Broome on Thursday, but  give Harrisburg credit, they run some very nice sets and are very fundamentally sound."

Harrisburg falls to 3-2 overall and 2-1 in Region XIX with the loss.
