BOONVILLE - Junior midfielder Zack Fortman had a goal and an assist in the Hornets' narrow loss to the Pirates - a former North Central Missouri Conference opponent - on Tuesday night.
Fortman's goal came off an assist from senior midfielder Erin Brady late in the second half. Freshman defender Dillon Jones then scored a few minutes later on a header off Fortman's corner kick.
Junior goalkeeper John Adams posted 15 saves for Fulton (0-5).
"We just ran out of time," Hornets head coach Joel Henley said. "We had plenty of opportunities. We were definitely tired after playing (Monday night), but that can't be an excuse for us.
"We have to continue to come out each night ready to play."
Fortman produced three goals for the second straight game and also had an assist in Fulton's 10-5 home loss to Missouri Military Academy on Monday night.
Senior midfielder Naman Dreyer and sophomore midfielder Fabian Wysocki chipped in with goals for the Hornets. Adams finished with 17 saves.
Fulton bowed in the junior varsity game 3-1. Junior striker Joe Barkho scored off an assist from sophomore defender Eston Dews.
The Hornets host Hillsboro at 10 a.m. Saturday at the high school athletic complex, with an alumni game to follow at noon.
