\"Rashard\"<\/a>The Tartan Pride are 18-0 with just 12 games left and have not really bent over the course of the season. They haven\u2019t let any team score over 100 points all season, meanwhile the Pride have put up 100 points in seven of their 18 games. Six of those seven games, sophomore forward Reshardd Harris, of Detroit, Michigan, has led the way in points. Harris has also won OCCAC player of the week three times this year; twice in November and once in December, has four double-doubles, and has a career high of 32 points in a single game.<\/p>\n

Harris grew up in a sports family and that has helped shape the person he is today. “I grew up in a good household and my mom kept me out of trouble. All I did was play basketball, play video games and play with my friends,\u201d says Harris.<\/p>\n

Before coming to Sinclair, Harris attended his freshman year of college at Schoolcraft College in Livonia, MI. He had a basketball scholarship there, but was recruited to come down to play for Coach Price.<\/p>\n

With the end of the season in sight, the tournament is starting to be talked about. Harris feels confident about their chances. \u201cI think we got a chance to go all the way. Coach said he has never coached a group of players like this before so we definitely got a great team. Definitely got a chance to make noise,\u201d says Harris.<\/p>\n

Harris is still a bit in shock that their team is ranked second in the nation, but he still feels they have to show more as people continue to underestimate Sinclair. “People are still doggin\u2019 us. I still feel like we are underrated. We still got a lot more to prove. Coming into the season, we were ranked fourth in our conference so we weren\u2019t even ranked in the preseason. So as long as they keep on doggin\u2019 us, that\u2019s just more motivation for us,\u201d says Harris.<\/p>\n

One day, Harris wants to play professional basketball overseas. But as of right now, his goal is to graduate college and stay out of trouble in life. If basketball doesn\u2019t work out, he still wants to stay involved with sports. \u201cI kind of want to do what Coach Price does, athletic director. I always liked sports. Anything that has to do with sports. I could see myself being a scout or strength and conditioning coach. As long as it has to do with sports,\u201d says Harris.<\/p>\n

Even though going undefeated has crossed their minds, it isn\u2019t their goal. With 9 games left to play and six tournament games, they still have a long way to go reach their goal. But Harris feels they can go all the way. With him leading the team in points and rebounds, it seems like they have a good shot at doing it.<\/p>\n
