Harris, a senior from Atlantic City High School, scored a game-high 20 points, including four field goals from well beyond the arc, and flashed the kind of play-making and ball-handling skills that should serve her well as she continues her basketball career at Palm Beach State, a Division I junior college in South Florida.

"This is really just the beginning for me," said Harris. "It's sad (that her high school career is over), but I'm just glad that I got to be known as one of the best in the area through high school. I just love everything about the game."

A series of very interesting proposals came out of Tuesday's meeting of the New Jersey State Interscholastic Athletics Association public/non-public committee in Atlantic City.

The most interesting - some would say most necessary - change would create a parochial-only football league to start in 2016.

If approved, St. Joseph, St. Augustine Prep and Holy Spirit would leave the Cape-Atlantic League for football. Public schools could still play parochial schools in non-league games, but public schools would no longer have to keep getting hammered in league play by non-public schools that can recruit and draw players from throughout the region. Holy Spirit, St. Joe and St. Augustine are a combined 59-10 against CAL public schools the past three seasons.
