Sunday was a heartbreaker for Panthers baseball as the team lost two games on walk-offs at Genesee Community College, 12-11 and 14-13. The losses complete a four-game weekend sweep of the Panthers by Genesee, despite TC3 scoring 41 runs over the four games. TC3 is now 2-21 overall and 1-10 in the Mid-State Athletic Conference. Genesee is now 11-14 overall and 6-4 in the MSAC.

Game One: Genesee 12, Tompkins Cortland 11

The Panthers had leads of 7-0 in the third inning and 11-7 in the seventh, but couldn't finish it off as a pair of errors in the bottom of the seventh inning allowed the home team to complete the comeback. Parker Seeley homered as part of a 3-for-4 day at the plate to lead a nine-hit attack for the Panthers.

Game Two: Genesee 14, Tompkins Cortland 13

The Panthers again saw a big lead dissolve in the seventh inning, this time taking a 13-7 lead into the final at bat. The first out came from the first batter, and the Panthers were just one out away with a 13-9 lead, but the Cougars kept the game going, eventually walking off with the win on a three-run homer.

The Panthers collected 14 hits in game two, led by Evan Shank going 3-for-4 with a triple. Keelan Marren was 2-for-4 with three RBI, Aiden Huften went 2-for-4 with two RBI, and Dominic Zona was 2-for-3 with two runs scored.

Looking ahead

The Panthers are scheduled to be home Tuesday against Onondaga Community College.
