If Dunbar heads into halftime all tied up, they better play a good second half: that's when Mariner took over last week. Mariner put the hurt on Gateway with a sharp 4-1 victory on Tuesday. The result was nothing new for the Tritons, who have now won eight contests by three goals or more so far this season.

They hit Gateway with a three-pronged attack, as the team got scores from Alessandro Gonzalez (2), Justin Medero, and Thomas Castano-Rayo.

Meanwhile, Dunbar was not the first on the board last Wednesday, but they got there more often. While the 1-1 score might suggest a draw, it was Dunbar who was credited with the win. Dunbar got it done in the shootout by posting five goals to Lehigh's four. The victory was some much needed relief for the Tigers as it spelled an end to their three-game losing streak.

Mariner's win was their ninth straight at home, which pushed their record up to 17-1. The wins came thanks to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they scored 44 goals over those nine games. As for Dunbar, their victory ended a three-game drought at home and bumped them up to 3-8.
