Will Hopcraft continued things in the second, along with Noah Prokopec scoring a pair of goals.
When the final buzzer went off, the Hornets had a 5-1 win to bring them one game away from advancing.
Game four of the series was then held on Sunday, March 1st at the Canada Summit Centre in Huntsville.
While the Otters managed to put up a fight, the Hornets would come out on top. Noah Larmon scored twice, and the Hornets got goals from Will Hopcraft, Duncan Grube, and Gunner Kirk to cap off a 5-3 win – good for the series sweep.
