RPI at UAH 12/30/10

As always, thanks for the support!

We have been in a number of discussions with the athletics department and even a few members of the presidents cabinet about this, and we have really been stonewalled by the athletics department. They have signed this contract (without ever mentioning it to us; lasts until June 2012) and say that their hands are tied and they cannot allow us to stream. I have seen the contract, and know that this is not really true. The most frustrating part is that it seems I have been having to fight them to do this, even though I am confident that it would serve them better (the money they make is so small as to be inconsequential), and that it would work better and be more beneficial for the fans, parents, alumni, students, school and THEM!! I think we could easily get a thousand people watching every single game online, live, if we were to stream it.

We (meaning I, most likely) am going to ask if we (assuming we can get enough crew; I think we can) can stream the Clarkson / St. Lawrence games on Jan 7th and 8th. I will let everybody know how this goes, and if we can do it, or if I need everyones help to pass their support for RPI TV streaming to the athletics department. Maybe it will mean more coming from people other than me!

A win is a win-but this goes in the column as a very disappointing win. We just sounded slow footed today. I wonder what changes SA makes in the line up for tomorrow? Just happy to get out of tonight win a WIN.

RPI wins it 2-1. Got through the first game of this series, and they should be ready for tomorrow nights game.
I think that the ice condition had a lot to do with the way the game was played.

To give our guys credit, RPI did enjoy a big advantage in faceoffs, winning 39 out of 62.

Hate to think how this one might have turned out if those faceoff results had been reversed.
