The Maroons, winners of three-straight, improve to 7-3 overall, 2-1 in the ODAC. The Marlins fall to 6-4, 2-2 in conference play.

Roanoke mounted a nine-goal halftime advantage and extended the lead to 18-4 by the end of the third quarter to keep the Marlins at bay.

Joey Coretti tallied six goals for the second-straight game to tie a season-best along with two assists. Jeff Keating totaled three goals and a team-high four assists while Mike Hayden added three goals and three assists to his claim.

Conner DuBois scored twice, but his contribution was more valued at the face-off position, winning 10-of-15 attempts and collected 10 groundballs to lead the Maroons. Michael Packo scooped up six groundballs while Brayden Gerrie scored a goal, dished out an assist and collected four groundballs to pace Roanoke to their seventh win of the season.

Mike Hardon earned the win between the pipes for Roanoke, coming up with nine saves while Charles Pease and Gil Long had a save each. Corey Bauer totaled 15 saves in goal for the Marlins.
