    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    There was an AP article in my local newspaper yesterday titled "Some colleges opt out of revenue sharing." The article was focused primarily on schools with Division I basketball and/or football programs. It said that while all members of the ACC, Big Ten, Big 12, PAC-12 (there's still a...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    When I was in high school, my family played host to a graduate exchange student from India, who had come here to attend RPI. I can remember one time when our guest told us that he had had a couple of hockey players in the course he was teaching as a graduate instructor - and he had given them...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    Not that men's basketball ever has enjoyed attendance figures to rival the hockey team's, but it is a fact that the men's basketball team has customarily played home games at 4 PM on Saturdays for years. This gives fans who want to attend the basketball games, especially those who might be...

    Son of a gun, so there is. I guess you're never too old to learn something new.

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    An e-mail from the Office of Alumni Engagement reminds us that Reunion will take place the second weekend in October, and says there will be a football game and a men's hockey game. The only 2025-26 schedule currently appearing on the athletics website is the football schedule, which indicates...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    Hopkins does, indeed, have a heck of a baseball team, with a powerhouse offense under normal circumstances. I saw them play Dickinson last year on an April day when the temperature was about 40 degrees with a 35-mph wind howling in from left field. They still scored four runs in each game of...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    Ned Harkness would never forgive us if we didn't talk about the lacrosse team. Dickinson's website indicates that they will play us on RIT's field at 3:00 Saturday. I'm not sure whether all four quarterfinal games will be at RIT or two at RIT and two someplace else. The Red Devils got off to...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    If I can sneak in a non-hockey post here... RPI's baseball team has won the Liberty League championship. After losing the first game of the double-elimination tournament to Ithaca, 13-1 :oops: , the Engineers rattled off four consecutive victories over Clarkson (10-1), Skidmore (14-3), Ithaca...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    Watching the Big Ten championship game on Saturday, I heard a familiar name. Ohio State came from 3-1 down in the third period to tie the game on a late goal by Gunnarwolfe Fontaine. (Michigan State eventually won, 4-3, in double overtime.) RPI fans may remember that early in 2018, Fontaine...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    I know that Ned Harkness departed following the 1962-63 season and Rube Bjorkman only coached for one season in 1963-64, after which Garry Kearns took over a team on the downturn and it took him a while to get them back to playing .500 or better hockey. The president of RPI during that period...

    RPI 2025 Off-Season: Help Is On the Way

    Perhaps this would be a more appropriate post for the alumni thread, but since no one's posted there in several years, I'll put it here. Former Engineer player Andrew Lord's name has been mentioned a couple of times in connection with the coaching vacancy, though he doesn't seem to be very high...

    What happened to that team that played the first period? :oops:

    3/7/25 RPI@Harvard

    As RPI's basketball team was reminded last weekend, it can be very hard to beat the same team three times in one year. I expect our guys to give Harvard a run for their money tonight. If it ends up with Harvard receiving the same sort of reminder, so much the better.

    RPI 2024–25: Come for the Hockey, Stay for the Football

    It's been my observation that most RPI e-mail addresses consist of the first five letters of the last name, followed by the first letter of the first name, and then @rpi.edu. Bowersk@rpi.edu might be right. If it doesn't work, I'd suggest trying bowerk@rpi.edu.

    CU @ RPI

    Basketball team has defeated Union, 72-64, and will move on to the Liberty League championship final on Sunday. Sounded like they had a good crowd over at the ECAV. Wonder how many of those will come over to the Field House for the third period.

    CU @ RPI

    The CU for tonight is Colgate, in case anyone was wondering. The Raiders kind of played a stinker against Clarkson in their most recent game. They may be motivated to give a little better effort tonight.

    RPI @ Dartmouth, Friday, 2/21/25

    This could be a trap game for Dartmouth. If they want to finish in the top four, they know it will really help if they beat Union tomorrow night. But if they're thinking too much about Union, RPI could give them a surprise.

    RPI 2024–25: Come for the Hockey, Stay for the Football

    I guess in light of your scouting report, Princeton decided not to play Smith. Didn't matter. RPI beat the other guy, anyway. :)

    RPI 2024–25: Come for the Hockey, Stay for the Football

    The lacrosse team opened its season yesterday, blasting the daylights out of Kean, 26-7. Ned Harkness, of course, coached the hockey team to a national championship in 1954. And what did he do after that? Started getting ready to coach the lacrosse team for its upcoming season. Of course...
