Re: RIT Women's Hockey 2009-2010
I will admit you raise a valid point, even the fans hate all the penalties called. RIT does play a more physical brand of hockey and it usually leads to getting calls against them. I've seen about 3 women's hockey "fights", all included RIT because they were defending a teammate. All of the RIT players have each others backs. They will defend each other when they have too.
I did take a nice gander at the score sheet and if you look closely I only highlighted RIT penalties (except one potsdam that i didnt mean to). The point in all this is being a part of the penalties. They took 18penalties in a game. I understand that Potsdam took 16. RIT took 9 after they were up by at least three goals. CLASS AND COMPOSURE
RIT has had 15 games (excluding the first ex. game) where they beat the opponent at least once by 4 or more goals. And has 110 penalties.
Elmira has 12 games under the same criteria and has 65 penalties.
Platty has 16 games and has 56 penalties.
Now many of these games are against the same teams, obviously, same conference right. now the question that has been presented before and will be again: Why is only RIT having trouble with these teams while other teams don't seem to be?
