Despite being outshot 32-14 (15-6 in the third period alone), RPI managed to win the first game against Cornell 1-0! With York in net. Cullen scoring the game winner. Of course, the next night, Rippeee got blown out which set up the pivotal game 3 in Ithaca NY.
Down 4-1 going into the third period, RPI almost came all the way back, scoring 2 goals in the final frame and actually outshooting the Big Red for the entire game. Alas, it was not enough and RPI is thinking about finals and Frear Park at this date on Monday.
Still, what fight the lads showed. What heart. What confidence in the young guns by SA! Really, can the season start next week with the new recruits already? People over at USCHO are already chomping at the bit for next season.
A full recap of the season and a look ahead will be upcoming in a few days but I think I will just end with this for right now:
- Here's to old RPI, her fame may never die.
- Here's to old Rensselaer, she stands today without a peer.
- Here's to those olden days,
- Here's to those golden days,
- Here's to the friends we made at dear old RPI.
