-November 5 - Senior Night
The Hornets closed the 2009 season with a hard earned victory over the Bixby Spartans 10-2 on 2009 Senior Night.  Eric Bennett scored the game's only touchdown with a 1 yard run in the second quarter.  Bixby's only points were scored when a high snap by the Hornets went into the end zone for a safety. One of the game's highlights was lineman and OSU commit Calvin Barnett carrying the ball for a game clinching first down on his only carry of the year. (anyone remember Refrigerator Perry?)

The Hornets defense put the stop on the Pryor rushing attack, allowing only 4 yards rushing to the previously undefeated Tigers. The result was a 35-6 victory for the Hornets Friday night at Pryor High School Stadium.  The win could be costly for the Hornets, as QB Eric Bennett was injured in the 3rd quarter and will miss the rest of the regular season.  New QB Jordy Albert filled in and was impressive in his first action of the year, scoring 2 touchdowns.  Dante Barnett aided the dominant defensive performance by grabbing 3 interceptions, and Aries Herrion returned an interception 50 yards for a touchdown.
