      I'm going off of memory so kill me if i have some details wrong.....1998-99 season. RIT DIII, highly ranked all year, team finished 27-3-2. Tons of talent on that team. Went to Frozen Four at Norwich.....Welllllll earlier in that year they had two games at UNO and won both games. It was AWESOME listening to WITR and the guys broadcasting the games. Staerker scoring breakaways and Jamie Morris standing on his head. Sue and I were screaming like mad people with excitement listening to those wins from our living room. UNO coach mentioned prior to the first game that a loss would be the worst night in the history of their young hockey program. Well after the second game, Lerchie got the best of the coach when interviewing the coach and can fill in more details than i can since my memory is shot...

        "UNO will face Clarkson University in the opener and 2010 Frozen Four participant RIT in the second game."

        So UNO is going to play plain old Clarkson and Frozen Four participant RIT? This part just looked so good I had to see it again!

            Close, but I think the UNO coach actually was quoted as saying "This is the worst night in my program's history." after the first night loss to RIT.

            So after RIT beat them the next night our esteemed and always personable Chris Lerch asked the coach something like "Last night you said this was the worst lost in program history, where does this one rank?"

            He was thrown out of the press conference. And we where never more proud of him
            Course, That's Just my Opinion, I Could Be Wrong.

                  According to those articles, the quote was "This is the worst loss of the season"
                  The local newspaper printed a slightly different quote along the lines of "...the program" instead of "...the season." It was that newspaper quote that supposedly got hung up in the RIT locker room and Chris Lerch quoted in the next day's interview.

                    The RIT men's hockey team will be honored at Frontier Field before tonight's Red Wings game. Coach Wilson and Lou Spiotti will be on hand to receive a key to the county or city or something like that from Maggie Brooks, and Dan Ringwald will throw out the first pitch.

                      Since she's the Couty Executive, I'm hazarding a guess that it is a key to the County ...
                      Although it wouldn't surprise me if Duffy were there too with one for the city, being that he's an alum and all.

                      They could have done this numerous times in the last month. Why did they have to do it during Finals week? I have to put my kid to bed then finish up studying for my test tomorrow. No time for ballgames.
                      Can't we all just get along?
                      Always remember... This is just a game we're talking about here. Let's not take it all too seriously.

                        Er, correction; I should have said President Destler, rather than Lou Spiotti. I was going by memory. =(

                        As for the key, the D&C says: "Head coach Wayne Wilson and RIT president Bill Destler will receive a key to the city from Monroe County Executive Maggie Brooks..." No idea how she got a hold of a key to the city. =)

                          Clearly she slept over at Duffy's house and accidentally picked up the wrong key on the way out. Now she has to get rid of it before someone finds out.

                              According to a friend who went to the game, Destler announced that Coach Wilson just signed on for five more years

                                That is correct, he said Wilson signed a 5 year contract
