Hornets unable to erase deficit in loss to Eldon

A double-digit deficit wasn't enough to keep the Fulton Hornets down in a 51-48 win at Marshall last Friday night. Unfortunately, that resolve wasn't enough to help Fulton overcome another sizeable deficit in their home opener against the Eldon Mustangs.

The Hornets couldn't knock down the shots while the Mustangs did. And that was all that was necessary as Fulton fell to Eldon 60-37 on Tuesday night at Roger D. Davis Gymnasium.
