  • MTU @/vs. LSSU: Battle of the Faded Dynasties

    Tech busses across the UP to take on the Lakers on Thursday night in the Soo. Lake State returns the favor with a trip to Houghton on Saturday evening.

    First "real" games for both teams. Despite some likely rust this early in the year, this series should be a good preview of the nWCHA action to come.

    Should be a good test for both teams looking for a solid last year in their respective conferences (as they know it)

        Last time a postseason matchup could've happened was when Tech was briefly in the CCHA from '82-'85.

        Last time we played LSSU in the regular season would've been 2010, the final Superior Showcase year.

          Does LSSU have a video feed?
          MTU Hockey fan since I was carried to a game in 1986 - for those counting... that's a lot of depressing hockey. Still love it.

            And yes, we rang the ship's bell after the game!

            In honor of this thread's title, I present the following image which honors the geographical bookends of this UP D-I championship string. Time for Tech to work towards add a new year to their list. And to NMU... Yes, one is the loneliest number.

              I'm really surprised they forgot LSSU's 1994 National Championship. Maybe somebody should tell BU about this.

                Nice! Also, it's amusing to think that even when this thing was published (1993?) LSSU had the most national championships of all the UP schools... if you count NAIA.

                So, when the UP becomes its own state, can the flag be black, green, blue and gold?

                  How'd you pull that off? I thought LSSU kept the padlock on it unless they won.

                  Probably an older poster - 1993 or early 1994, I'd guess?

                    Just go to Home Depot, buy a hammer, and pound the **** out of the bell.

                      If that is the case, maybe it's time to commission a new one...or perhaps they are waiting until Tech wins another title

                        That'd be akin to this:

                          When's the last time a UP team made the NCAA tourney?

                            2010 - Northern Michigan.

                            LSSU last made it in 1996, and Tech in 1981 (I believe).
