LITTLE ROCK — With two down in the top of the seventh inning, it was déjà vu for the Bryant Hornets on Saturday at UALR’s Gary Hogan Field against another brand of Panthers.
Just like on Friday night in the Big Red Classic, the Hornets were down two with the top of the batting order coming up.

On Saturday, even though the first two batters got aboard, the clutch hit never came and, with lefty Isaac Hulse getting the save, Greenbrier held on for a 4-2 win, pinning the first loss of the season on the Hornets, who are now 8-1 going into their 6A-Central Conference opener at Fort Smith Northside on Monday.
