HARRISBURG-March 27, 2004...It was more of the same for the Harrisburg Horizon last night as they cruised to a 112-88 win over the Schuylkill Fire Dogs. The win improved Harrisburg's record to a league-best 4-0.

Forward Jarad Mills scored a team-high 25 points for the Fire Dogs in the losing effort. Forward Cherron Jackson and guard Karim Francisco each had 16 points.
