Marksmen blank Roanoke, 2-0

ROANOKE, Va.- The Fayetteville Marksmen, proud members of the Southern Professional Hockey League, defeated the Roanoke Rail Yard Dawgs at Berglund Center on Friday night, 2-0.

The two teams battled to a deadlock after 40 minutes of play with goaltenders Jason Pawloski and Austyn Roudebush trading saves.

Finally, just over seven minutes into the third period, Tanner Froese slid a shot under the glove-side arm of Roudebush, tallying his first goal of the season.

Fayetteville stood solid behind Pawloski who logged a 22-save shutout. Pawloski has now stopped 47 straight shots and has played 117:25 without allowing a goal.

Drake Glover would add an empty netter to seal the victory with 23 seconds left in the game.
