After a goalless first half, Buxton struck four times in the second without reply to claim all three points against Marine at The Silverlands.
Early on, Finlay Sinclair Smith looked to create the first opening of the game, delivering a free-kick into the area that failed to find a Marine shirt.
Soon after, Leigh Whelen became the first name in the book in the 16th minute after bringing down Johnny Johnston following some quick footwork.
The first shot of the contest did not arrive until the 21st minute, with Charlie Jolley trying his luck from distance, though his effort was comfortably gathered by Joe Young.
Just before the interval, Johnston had the final effort of the half, forcing Marine’s goalkeeper into a save at his near post.
Following the restart, Buxton came out firing and did not take long to find the opener. Debutant Zac Gilsenan received the ball after a driving run from Johnston and found the bottom right corner with his finish.
The breakthrough was not followed by a second until the 83rd minute, but when it came the goals flowed. Cian Coleman, introduced from the bench, found space before firing a low-driven shot to make it 2-0.
Moments later, Luke Brennan’s free-kick was scrambled into the back of the net by Tai Sodje to extend the lead.
To cap it off, the fourth and final goal arrived in added time, with Tate Campbell producing a composed finish to seal a 4-0 victory.
