The last time the Alliston Hornets met the Orillia Terriers on Oct. 24, it was on Orillia home ice and the Hornets took a 4-1 loss.

The Hornets delivered some payback when the Terriers arrived in Alliston for a Hornets home game at the New Tecumseth Recreation Centre on Friday, Nov. 6.

It was a slow start on Friday night when neither team could score in the first period.

The Hornets stepped it up in the second frame, scoring four unanswered goals.

Hornets’ goals came from Lucas Bell, Duncan Grube, Jonathan Beausaert, and Gunner Kirk.

It was a 6-0 game at the midway mark in the third period when Grube and Kirk got their second goals of the night.

Orillia avoided the shutout when they scored with 2:53 left in the game.

The final was a 6-1 win for the Hornets. 

Both teams arrived at the arena ready to play and left the rough stuff off the ice for the night. The Hornets had a single two-minute minor penalty, while Orillia had four minutes in the penalty box for the night.

The Hornets remain in first place in the North Carruthers Division with a 13-2 record and 24 points.

The Penetang Kings have now moved into second place with 22 points and an 11-2 record.

That has knocked the Stayner Siskins down to third place after they took a loss this past week.

The rest of the standings in order are Orillia Terriers, Muskoka Bears, Innisfil Spartans, Midland Flyers, and the Huntsville Otters.

Alliston forward Tristen Pitt is the top points earner for the Hornets this season with 27 points from 15 goals and 12 assists. That total places him in the number two position in the division by points, but he is the top scorer in the division.

Alliston forward Nick Lamont is the second top points earner for the squad with 22 points. However, his total will stay the same for a few weeks as he is currently on the injured list.

The Hornets will return to home ice at the New Tecumseth Recreation Centre on Friday, Nov. 20, to host the Stayner Siskins.

Game time is 7:30 p.m.
