The next RBI came from Gentzke, who lofted a ball deep enough for a sacrifice fly, which scored Meola. Rose added the third run of the inning with a single up the middle to score Max Zimmerman. Brockport added another run at the top of the third when Todd Allen singled to score Mike Meola.
Cortland battled back, scoring three runs in the first three innings, brining Brockport's lead down to one run going into the fourth. Cortland would take the lead in the bottom of the inning, scoring two runs to go up 5-4.
The Red Dragons never gave up the lead after that, as they went to score three more in the sixth. Brockport was able to get one run back in the seventh, but it was not enough, as they fell to Cortland in the championship game, losing 5-8.
Brockport still has a shot to place in the ECACs, as they were selected as the No. 3 seed in the ECAC Upstate championship. They play St. John Fisher Saturday May 9 at host Fredonia. With a win, they'll play the winner of Fredonia-Cazenovia.
