RPI & Union, Home & Home, 10/31/14 & 11/01/14

Re: RPI & Union, Home & Home, 10/31/14 & 11/01/14

In spite of an impressive start to the campaign, it seems to be generally conceded that Union has yet to reclaim its form of last season. The lineup is punctuated with new faces, all of whom have admirably acquitted themselves. It is difficult to see the Dutchmen losing this weekend. Should the Bennett Boys start firing on all cylinders against a reeling RPI team, the potential for lopsided scores will contribute to the lopsided record of the last twenty meetings (two RPI victories).

There's been more than two RPI victories in the last 20. Unless, of course, you're only counting league games.

Per Ed Weaver's Work in Progress in The Record...2-17-1 in league play.

That must have been before the other RB "accidently" spilled the rest of the pot of hot coffee on SA's hand. ;)

This is interesting, makes you think there will be a different approach to the rivalry this year.

Standing room tickets purchased for Saturday's game, so I'll have the joy of pushing against Union fans to see RPI (probably) get shellacked. Awesome.

Hats off to you, sir. Good luck, we're all counting on you.

Edit: gender. My bad.

Union lineup
After sitting out last Saturday’s game, Kevin Shier replaces Tyler Hynes.

Forwards (LW-C-RW):
Daniel Ciampini/Mike Vecchione/Specner Foo
Roman Ammirato/Max Novak/Matt Wilkins
Mark Bennett/Ryan Scarfo/Sam Coatta
Kevin Shier/Eli Lichtenwald/Michael Pontarelli

Defense:
Jeff Taylor/Noah Henry
J.C. Brassard/Sebastien Gingras
Nick DeSimone/Charlie Vasaturo

That is a very very solid lineup for us !!!! No experimenting here.
All four lines are fairly balanced, solid
Novak and Wilkins back on the same line !!!!
Scarfo back at center
Starting 6 freshmen
