Three power play goals and a shorty allowed by UML...not a recipe for success regardless of who your goalie is.

Yes, from the “make of it what you will” department, I noticed Lowell got smoked 7-1 last night by BC, so it’s clearly not a Savory problem, although he was goalie #3 last night and saw no action. Hard to see how this plays out for him.

Agreed. But then again, losing an entire year of not skating or performing on-ice drills at RPI isn't really a development option .... Sadly I drove thru campus on Friday -- reminded me a lot of a scene from a Russian movie...grey dark buildings, few people, few cars. BTW, no snow clearing on Harkness field ...so it appears our nationally ranked lacrosse teams will suffer the same fate... Truly sad.

You are probably right. All 20-21 sports were probably cancelled in the mid summer of 2020. Only the "official" announcements were broken out seasonally. However, for those looking for a glimmer of hope and sanity, lacrosse is NOT played on Harkness field. They use the stadium for that. If the stadium is also uncleared then we know lacrosse is also done. Lacrosse has their first game last season one year ago Tuesday.
 
Today is 14 February 2021. There are 230 days until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 2 October 2021 for the start of next season.
 
Ture Linden is graduating a year early this spring, but he will be staying and doing his masters here. He also had shoulder surgery recently. I think he'll be 100% by the time they start up things for next season though.

Harkness is used for practices -- which is why I mentioned it.

My daugher just told me they had an actual in person meeting with the coaches this morning. (not sure if mens team did too, but info is info) They basically said they're just waiting on her highness to approve of the plan to practice.
I don't see the hold up. Even the high school, which is basically on campus, is starting their basketball season tonight. Yet HFH, one block away, isn't even having practices? I literally cannot grasp the logic there.

My understanding is no member of the men's program came back to Troy for Spring semester. Multiple plans have been in front of SAJ since last summer. One year into this mess, I have thrown all logic out the window. Can't imagine any RPI athlete would have any positive vibes from the silent treatment from SAJ/administration they are getting.

Certainly glad to see the local high schools get back at it. But keep in mind there is not the extensive testing in place like RPI. Logic would say if high school can move forward, that SAJ should "follow the science" after , what, 100,000 (or more) tests on campus and very few positive tests. At least put a little faith in opening facilities to the ones paying their tuition and let all students get some sort of normalcy in their lives....... Truly a sad time to even try and speak of RPI athletics.

SAJ will follow the Ivies, she believes RPI is an Ivy. Athletics do not matter to her at all and the AD is not much help
 
Has anyone heard if RPI is going to hold graduation this year, or is this also going to be done on line? I seem to recall that it wasn't held a year ago.
 
According to the academic calendar, residence halls and apartments are scheduled to close on May 13 for all students not participating in Commencement. Commencement is scheduled for May 22.

The fact that they are contemplating people hanging around campus for nine days after May 13 would seem to indicate that they haven't made a decision to do everything on line, and an in-person Commencement ceremony might still be a possibility.

Of course, a lot of things might be a possibility, but who knows which of them will come to pass.
