After going more than a month without losing a match, Horseshoe Bend found itself on the wrong end of the scoreboard Wednesday night in Eclectic. The Generals had their 23-game winning streak snapped by Elmore County as the Panthers jumped out to a quick start and never looked back, winning 25-17, 25-16, 25-18.

Horseshoe Bend (27-5) fell behind by as many as 13 points in the first set but fought back to cut the deficit to six points on a kill from Jahia Jennings. The Generals just ran out of time to fall behind by a set and they never recovered.
