Thanks to the RedSox and Braves collapse last night what is the biggest collapse/choke/upset you've seen in DIII hockey?
In no order
2001 NCAA Championship game
#1 Undefeated and host RIT VS Plattsburgh
RIT had just beat Plattsburgh 8-2 a few weeks prior. One of the best DIII teams to lace them up, and the get rocked 6-2 on their home ice.
2000 regular season
RIT goes into the 3rd period up 4-1 only to see Plattsburgh score 4 straight including Derrick Shaws shorthanded game winner with 6 minutes left.
I still think winning a conference regular season title 5 years out if 7 and only walking away with 1 post season conference title is a bit of a collapse as well.
