Mercyhurst added a run in the fifth on a Troy Banks solo home run. Surowiec pushed the lead to 4-1 with a sacrifice fly in the sixth.

The Senators tied the game with a three-run home run in the eighth. Davis & Elkins took advantage of a Laker error to add a pair of runs in the ninth.

Jared Kapturasky took the loss in relief allowing two unearned runs. Jack Elliott, Philip Ferranti and Casimer Sobaszek all went 2-for-4 to lead the offense for the Lakers.
