The Hornets secured the Bidois Cup on Monday July 3rd in what was the second round of the AIHA Cup Series for 2017. 

The game started off with a goal in the first 30 seconds of period 1 to the Hornets, who added to this 15 minutes later to bring the score 2-0. With just 45 seconds to go in the first period, the Pythons struck back, bringing the game 2-1 in favour of the Hornets at the first intermission.

The Hornets did not relent in their attack, scoring another 2 goals in period 2, leaving the game 4-1 as the teams hit the locker room, waiting for period 3. 

In the third and final period, the only team to feature on the score sheet was the Pythons with a single goal. The final buzzer sounded giving the Hornets a 4-2 victory and claim to the Bidois Cup for the next month.
