The Poachers earned their first win of the season thanks to a rapid start.
Layton Maddison grabbed his first ever goal for the club after only 3 minutes, with Fraser Bayliss doubling the lead 4 minutes later.
Newly-promoted Hucknall reduced the deficit in the second half with an audacious lob from distance.
But Liam Adams secured all 3 points with his first goal of the campaign and the visitors ended up with 10 men after a late red card.
Luke Wilson was named Man of the Match by sponsor Newton Fallowell Lettings.
