Hornets Edge Patriots

The Hiram Hornets edged out the Paulding County Patriots on the diamond in action last week by a score of 4-3 in an early region game. The Hornets scored the winning run in their last at-bat to prevent the visiting Patriots from getting the victory.
It was a tough week for the Patriots as they suffered losses in 3 of their 4 games running their record to 1-2 in the region and 2-4 overall. The Patriots hope to rebound this week as they will host East Paulding and Villa Rica in region play. The Hornets improved to 1-1 in the region will travel to face a tough Carrollton squad before hosting the Rome Wolves this week.
