Hackett Sr Hornets Flatten The Rattlers In BB Combat

In their second conference game of the season against Magazine, the Hackett Sr High Hornets smashed the Rattlers to walk away with a 44-38 win. In their first go-round, the Rattlers took the victory by two points so this time the Hornets wanted to make sure that they didn’t fall to that same fate again. Hackett upgrades their total season record to 6-14, move 4-6 in conference play, and hold 846 points on the year. Dylan Kats led his team offensively with 14 points. Cash Oliver netted 12 points. Zach Gragg brought in 11 points. Jake Fisher secured six points. And Austin Cowell made one point. 

“It was a tough battled out game throughout. We shot the ball poorly and struggled to establish any kind of inside presence. They were forcing us to take outside shots and for three quarters we did not see many shots fall. In the fourth, Cash Oliver hit four three-pointers and it forced Magazine to get out of their comfort zone and have to play us man to man. For a sophomore to be able to step up and give us that spark speaks volumes about this team. We do not care where the production comes from because we all play as one big team,” stated coach, Kent Elmore. 

For their second to last conference game, the Hornets will host the (5-5) Mountainburg Dragons. The Dragons are 8-15 in total season play and fell to Hackett 40-38 in their last battle three weeks ago.
