The game would start off good for the home hornets as they would jump out to the big lead after the first quarter at 17-6.

In the fourth quarter, the game would remain tight throughout and there would even be a couple of lead changes in the stanza. Although the Hornets would have enough in them to secure the 42-36 victory on the strength of a 14-11 quarter to get their first win of the season.
