outscoring Rollins 6-2 in the quarter. Morgan
Baker and Will
Diamond notched goals for the Tars in the period.
Down 14-3 heading to the fourth, Rollins showed no signs of
backing down, providing their best offensive quarter of the game,
outscoring the Griffins 5-4 in the period. Stephen

SHU made it 17-4 with 10:29 to play.
Rollins fired back with a pair of goals by Riley
Robinson and Stefanowicz's second, making it 17-6.
After a Griffin goal made it 18-6, the Tars closed the game with
