Host Terre Haute North faced off against Sagamore Conference opponent Harrison (West Lafayette) in a high school football game on Friday at Gene Shike Field. The match ended with a 29-6 score in favor of Harrison, leaving Terre Haute North winless for the season and in their last 19 games. Coach Aaron Edwards attributed their loss to 12 penalties that hampered their performance.
The coach expressed frustration, stating, "We're trying to play disciplined football, but we're not there yet." Freshman quarterback Bryan Millington completed 147 yards for North, while Landon Garrett and Nyzier Jameson both scored three catches. However, the Patriots struggled to support their passing game with a less effective running game, as Jaiden Loftson gained 36 yards on 17 carries.
After trailing 14-6 at halftime, Terre Haute North continued to falter in the third quarter, repeating the coach's sentiment, "We can't keep shooting ourselves in the foot." With a record of 0-6 and 0-2 in the Sagamore Conference, Terre Haute North will next play at McCutcheon on Friday. Harrison, currently at 2-4 and 1-2, will be in attendance at Danville that evening.
