Coach Paul Adas said that despite not playing well, the Hornets were able to find a way to win.

“We didn’t play our best tonight, but a buzzer-beating shot to win is better than being on the losing side of it like we were Friday night,” Adas said.

The Hornets play at Ortonville-Brandon on Jan. 16.
