However, time ran out with the deficit from the first half, the game went to Thorp, 58-48.

Junior Bradee Burish led for Cadott, with 17 points, followed by junior Jordan Peters and sophomore Warren Bowe, who each had 10. Freshman Jackson Barone added 2 points on the night, while sophomore Nolan Freed chipped in with a point from a free throw.

The Hornets are now 4-12 on the season and 0-9 in the West Cloverbelt Conference.
