The Lead: After opening the season with three double overtime draws, the Roanoke men's soccer team traveled to Shenandoah in search of their first win of the season. The Maroons would out-shoot their hosts 11-3 with a pair of shots finding the back of the net for the 2-0 Old Dominion Athletic Conference (ODAC) win.

Highlights:

• Roanoke would get out to a quick start. Just over 16 minutes into the match, Anthony Zarlenga found Joe Carman for an early 1-0 advantage.
• The two teams would only combine for three first half shots as the defenses stepped up and the Maroons would take the 1-0 advantage into the break.
• Less than 10 minutes into the second frame, a Hornet foul would lead to a Roanoke penalty kick. Dylan Berk scored on the PK and the Roanoke lead grew to 2-0.
• The Maroons defense would make the two scores hold up as they only allowed one shot to make it to keeper Zach Behe.
• In addition to leading in shots, Roanoke enjoyed a 10-0 edge in corner kick opportunities. Carman would put three of his four shots on net to pace the Roanoke offense.

Up next: Roanoke is scheduled to host Ferrum College next Sunday, March 14, at 3:30pm.
