The Bombers suffered a 13-6 setback to previously fifth-ranked Rochester Institute of Technology on April 10 but two days later dominiated Fisher, 11-3. Ithaca held the Cardinals to their fewest goals since falling 11-3 at Ithaca on March 21, 2007.
Nazareth prevailed 18-10 against Hartwick College on April 13. Earlier in the week, the Golden Flyers were tied 6-6 at halftime with Alfred but the game was suspended due to thunder and lightning. The game will resume on April 16 at 4:30 pm.
