Junior running back Collier Blair had a rushing touchdown in the win, while senior linebacker Jordan Smith covered a fumble in the end zone for the other score for the Hornets. The final margin of victory was provided by senior Cooper Neal, who hit a 49-yard field goal in the game.

The Chelsea defense stood firm throughout the second half to hold onto the lead and the win.

The Hornets will return to play this week when they host Carver-Birmingham. Kickoff will be at 7 p.m.
