The Solar Bears opened the scoring in the first period when Etienne Boutet's shot from the left point fluttered through the pads of Greenville's Devin Buffalo at the 9:46 mark.

Cody Donaghey made it 2-0 just 53 seconds into the middle frame when he scored on a delayed penalty against Greenville. Donaghey drove the net and knocked in Brady Shaw's centering feed past Buffalo for his first goal of the season.

Donaghey then helped set up Brent Pedersen for a power-play goal at 15:53, as Pedersen redirected Donaghey's point shot past Buffalo for his fourth goal of the season.

Shaw scored an additional power-play goal at the 3:07 mark for his fourth tally of the season as well.

Boes stopped all 36 shots he faced for the win in just his second professional start; Buffalo made 28 saves on 32 shots against in the loss for Greenville.
