I'd have to go with Seager and Serena for a few reasons.

1. Lack of a Semblance on Mariposa's part. This in turn indicates less combat experience, and lacking a Semblance can cripple Hunters when facing other people.

2. Lack of melee threat from either Poe or Mari. Charging in and forcing them on the defensive from the outset would spell doom for that team.

3. Neither Poe nor Mariposa can take many hits, and evasion won't last them forever. I say this especially since the other team appears to have a ranged weapon designed to slow an enemy.

4. While Poe might be able to blow one opponent out with his dust attacks, I don't think he'll be able to pick up the slack on this one. The two of them are hard hitting Hunters with complementary weapons.

Overall, it isn't even close. Huntsmen in RWBY can block bullets, and while the arrows may be dust enfused, Mariposa's lack of a semblance coupled with the utter lack of melee between them make this match abuntantly clear to me.

Seager and Serena win. Knockout, no casualties.
