The Harvesters lost 88-76 to North Lake on Monday night in a tie-breaker game to determine which team would represent the Metro Athletic Conference in the NJCAA national tournament.
North Lake defeated Eastfield 92-83 on Saturday to win the MAC tournament championship. Since Eastfield is the regular season conference champion, the teams faced off again.
The Blazers, the defending National Junior College Athletic Association Division III champions, will play in the national tournament next month in Loch Sheldrake, New York.
The Harvesters' last national tournament appearance was in 2016, when they placed fourth.
