AHA Semifinal #1 - RIT vs Canisius

[RITShockSquad]

#1 seed RIT goes up against #5 Canisius. This is RIT's third trip to the AHA semis in their 3 years of post-season eligibility. Canisius hasn't been here since 2004.

RIT swept Canisius on home ice the last week of the regular season. Should be interesting to see what happens on the bigger ice surface.

Puck drops at 4:05pm

Morrison doesn't look comfortable for the Griffs. Maybe the 18 shots on goal will do that to you
