CHANDLER, Ariz. -- Dickinson State dropped the final two games of its trip to Arizona on Monday.

Brockport (N.Y.) University junior Max Zimmerman had a two-run single in the bottom of the 10th inning top the Blue Hawks 10-9.

In its second game of the day, DSU suffered an 11-5 defeat to Johns Hopkins University (N.Y.). Sam Wernick drove in five runs for Johns Hopkins.

Against Brockport, Cole Zamira's 10th-inning RBI triple scored Nolan Bracken to put DSU ahead.

But, in the bottom of the 10th, a single by Tom McCormick and a double by Nate Parrino set up Zimmerman's game-winning single.

"That first one's a tough one," DSU head coach Duane Monlux said.

The Blue Hawks led early until Brockport caught fire and scored six runs on four hits in the sixth inning.

Liam Foran sent Chris Young home in the top of the ninth to knot the game 8-8 and force extra innings.

Ryan Crossingham started the game for DSU but Andrew Grafton was tagged with the loss after allowing Brockport's runs in the 10th.

DSU fell behind Johns Hopkins 7-3 after two innings as Wernick drove in two runs in each inning.

Kevin Park had a solo home run in the sixth inning and an RBI double in the fourth for DSU, which fell to 8-4 on the season.

Derrick Gunderson went 3-for-4 with two doubles.

"For us to hang with Hopkins after an emotional loss in the first one, I was proud of the way the kids battled," Monlux said.
