Kelsey King would bring Ithaca to within striking distance in the 66th minute after rebounding a missed penalty shot and beating the Red Dragons' goalie to make it 3-2.

The Bombers tried to force the action in ther game's closing minutes, taking five shots, but none found the mark as Cortland held on for the one-goal win.

Beth Coppolecchia took the loss for Ithaca and moved her season record to 3-3.  The senior keeper made five saves overall in 90 minutes.

The Bombers will look to get back to their winning ways at 6 p.m. on Wednesday when they open Empire 8 play at Alfred.
