RPI 2026-27: Houston Field House, We Have Lift-off!

RPI football opens their season on September 5th hosting WPI at noon. I have not found any link to a streaming broadcast as yet but am hopeful that they will have this one on YouTube or RPITV. Hoping for a successful season but some rather difficult games on the schedule including Utica, Ithaca and as always Hobart and Union.

I swung by HFH today...there was a hardhat meeting going on behind the rink. A loader was moving the fluid totes staged in the parking to the rear area near the chiller. The totes contain glycol...so it would appear they are getting ready to charge and fire up the new chiller.

I am a little concerned about the completion time line of this.

I don't disagree. I can only go by what was said at the golf outing. The Ice is supposed to go in starting on 9/11. I'll feel better when the new boards and glass arrive on site. The women are supposed to christen the place with their home opener on 10/2..we'll see.

There is a watch link to the right right of the schedule page on the athletics website so they must have been at least planning to stream the game.

However, when you click on it a message comes up saying that the link will be updated on the Monday before a home football game. For this week that did not happen. So who knows what Saturday will bring.

Also noticeable is that there is no reference of any kind to what has been a staple of over four decades (over five for hockey) and that is radio coverage of sports. Zero reference also includes the upcoming broadcasting schedule on the radio station's website itself which has absolutely nothing listed for any sports coverage of any kind including hockey. If so and acknowledging the fact that radio becomes more and more obsolete with the addition of every new medium that comes along, it will nonetheless be missed. Add to that the cost of travel expenses for personnel to put stuff on the air and maybe, however annoying it may be, it is time to pull the plug.

How costly??? For just four away football games, a quick for myself traveling solo in my head calculation for all expenses involved in operating a car and adding hotel or Airbnb for round trips too far to cover in one day adds up to possibly closer to $2,000 as it does to $1,000 which does not even include food!!!
 
In honor of Nate Krawchuk, today is 2 September 2026. There are 30 days (1 month) until RPI's next game.


This is based upon 2 October 2026 for the start of next season.

Just for fun, looking at our schedule, anyone want to take a stab at predicting our record this season? I know we’ve improved a ton but I feel like a lot of other teams have as well. The talent level is definitely higher but we do lack college hockey experience. Curious how that all shakes out.

I think we have a good chance of winning 15-16 games. Next year 18-20
