The Greyhounds scored the first goal of the game a minute and a half in, with Loucks finding the back of the Greyhound goal a few minutes later to tie things at one.
Moravian scored the next five goals, with Duran finding Loucks for a goal, while the Eagles were a man up to make it 6-2 with just under 11 minutes to play in the second quarter. The Greyhounds rattled off five straight before Hoover was the provider for Louck's third goal to stop the visitor's run momentarily. Moravian added two more to close the half as JC trailed by ten at the break.
The Eagles battled tough in the second half, as they scored six goals to the Greyhound nine.
