The Hawks quickly doubled the advantage as Andrew Cary scored his team leading 18th goal of the season just six minutes later at the 5:11 mark.
The Holley advantage jumped to 3-0 when Derek McArthur scored his 10th goal of the campaign with 20 minutes to go in the second half.
Kendall avoided the shutout when Jake Adams netted his team leading 26th goal of the season on a direct kick.
