Solway opted for Jordan Marr between the pipes once again, who was set to face his former team for the first time, backed up by Calum Hepburn.
Meanwhile Canadian import Hayden Lavigne was given the start for Peterborough, accompanied by Luke Clark on the bench. The Sharks got off to a flying start and immediately applied offensive pressure on Lavigne through the first line of Robertson, Dunbar and Gardiner.
