FOOTBALL
Taft came looking for a win against the Hornets in the first round of playoffs Nov. 16 but fell short as EC came out on top with a 22-17 victory! Both teams held each other off in the first quarter and the Raiders and Hornets matched touchdowns in the second quarter. Kelvin Butler scored on a four yard run and Wesley Reynolds scored the point after touchdown tying the score 10-10. Chris Johnson scored the final two touchdowns in the forth quarter to win the game over Taft 22-17.
Hornets knew they had to give it their all Nov.23 to come out on top against the Smithson Valley Rangers, but were unsuccessful with a 22-49 loss. The Rangers scored twice before Gary Coleman could make it into the end zone in the second quarter. Smithson Valley rallied 28 points before Chris Johnson slipped into the zone ending the third quarter 14-42. Smithson valley and East Central both scored in the fourth quarter.
The East Central Hornet football team finished their 2007 season 7-5, finishing 4-2 in district and made it past the first round of playoffs, which has not happened in ten long years. The football season may be over, but the EC Hornets had one of the most successful years yet.
VOLLEYBALL
This season the Lady Hornets played hard, and gave it their all. The girls made it to the playoffs with an overall record of 19-2 and district record of 8-4. They beat Marshall on Oct. 30 in four games, advanced to the second round of playoffs, and played Reagan on Nov.1. Unfortunately, the girls lost, but finished off their season with tremendous pride.
The Lady Hornets claimed the titles of Bi-District Champions and Area Finalist. Even though the volleyball team will lose some mighty Hornets next season, more will enter the hive. Great season ladies!
