Slow start shackles Hornets in NCMC loss to Moberly

If there's one thing Fulton Hornets head coach Darren Masek is still trying to figure out with his team, it's what causes its slow starts.

With Fulton now three games into a losing skid - a streak that was preceded by six consecutive wins - Masek would like to figure out what the problem is now more than ever.

"We just have to play baseball from the first inning to the last inning," Masek said. "We've struggled this year getting off to real good starts; I don't know why."

The Hornets couldn't put the finishing touches on a seventh-inning rally, falling to North Central Missouri Conference foe Moberly 6-4 on Thursday night at the high school athletic complex.
