“It was pretty tight the whole way,” Southern coach Shane Buttry said. “We held them at bay enough.”

Southern jumped out to a 17-11 lead after the first quarter and had a 27-22 advantage at halftime. North Oldham took a two-point lead in the third, but Abshear hit a three-pointer to give the Eagles a lead they would never relinquish.

Damien Harris had five points and had a big three-point play in the fourth quarter that put Southern back up by six points. Spencer Stone and Drew Taylor had two points each.

The Eagles had just seven turnovers and were nine-of-18 from the free throw line.
