Harrodsburg led 41-40 at the half, but trailed 56-55 heading into the fourth quarter.
"In the fourth quarter, we finally put it all together. I said let's go with our starters and do what we're supposed to do," Luhman said. "We went man-to-man and buckled down. It was a great learning experience, and it's nice when you have someone like Chase to dominate on the offensive end so you can try things on the defensive end."
