Harris played two seasons for the Dawgs after transferring in from Chesapeake, Ohio before his junior campaign but his impact on the program was unmeasurable and helped the Bulldogs to the state tournament last season. He missed five games this season and battled through it the second half of the year.
He was the leading scorer this past season averaging 21.6 points per game, shot 37.6 percent from behind three point line, making 56 total, shot 75.6 from the free throw stripe, was the assists leader as well. He also scored over 1,000 points in his two seasons.
Kaiden was some of his Bulldog basketball teammates after the signing.

“… UPike has a great coaching staff and a great connection with Coach Thompson and it’s also closer to home than some of the other schools.”
“… Coach Thompson helped me develop as a point guard instead of just a scorer, which helped me prepare for the next level where my role is gonna be adjusted.”
“… Schools showing interest were Wheeling College, Indiana State, KCU, Alice Lloyd, William Penn University, Luther Crown College, Judson College and Hilbert College.”
“… I want to thank My family, especially Papaw Bill and then my trainer Chris Lovely.”
