With the split the Hornets are now 4-3 overall and 1-2 in the MIAA.
Wade Hanna hit a 2-run single in the first inning to give the Hornets a 3-0 lead in the matinee. Shawn Talkington pitched six innings of scoreless ball, striking out seven Bronchos, to make that lead stand up. Tory Bell and Justin Harris each drove in a run in the win.
Broncho starting pitcher Rickey Reeves threw a one-hit shutout in the second game. He struck out six batters and gave up the lone hit on a double off the bat of Harris.
