- Roanoke would get on the board when Jake Berecz scored with a little over seven minutes on the clock.
- Just over a minute later, Chris Jerrild cut the deficit to two with his first goal of the season.
- With 1:20 left to play Gabriel Hendi brought the Maroons to within a single goal but RC ran out of time and fell on the road.
- All three Roanoke scores were unassisted. In net, Jacob Humer got the start, recording four saves.
Up next: The Maroons return home on Sunday for an Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) match with Randolph-Macon.
