The Hornets built off last week’s win by defeating Triton Central 27-8 and earning their first conference win of the season. Eron Freeman put the Hornet offense on his back with a big game that included over 100 yards rushing and finding the end zone twice. Many Hornets stepped up on defense as a few starters were lost to injury. Brendan Dulworth and Ian Thompson stepped in at defensive end and were able to hold the Tigers to one score. The Hornets are now 2-0 on the season and 1-0 in conference play. Beech Grove travels to Speedway next week for another conference contest.
