Fishers was stunned by a big third quarter from Zionsville on Friday, and that led to the Eagles beating the Tigers 48-44 at the Tiger Den.
The win gave Zionsville an undefeated (7-0) Hoosier Crossroads Conference championship. Fishers finished 5-2 in the HCC, tying for second place with Brownsburg.
The Tigers led 13-7 after the first quarter, and extended their advantage to 23-14 by halftime. Luke Hernandez hit three 3-pointers, while Jeffrey Simmons added eight points. But the Eagles outscored Fishers 19-6 in the third quarter to go up 33-29, and held on to that lead in the fourth.
Simmons finished with 15 points, while Hernandez was next in line with nine points.
The Tigers are 15-7 and play their regular-season finale Wednesday at Kokomo.
