Road Trips

October 10-11, 2008: If you die in Canada, you die in real life

The band (over 50 people in all) traveled to Quebec City, PQ for the season opener against Vermont. The game was held at the Pavillon de la Jeunesse, and the team lost 1-4.

December 5-6, 2008: Women's Hockey @ Quinnipiac & Princeton, Men's Hockey @ Yale

Due to the short distance between Quinnipiac and Yale (~10 miles) and fortunate scheduling, the band traveled to three away games over two days. The women's team won their games against Quinnipiac and Princeton (2-1 and 3-2 respectively) while the men's team lost to Yale 3-7.

January 23-24, 2009: Men's Hockey @ St. Lawrence & Clarkson

RPI beat SLU 7-6 at 9 seconds into overtime. The fans heckled the RPI band to the point of throwing trash at the band. Although Clarkson beat RPI, it was more welcoming to be at Cheel Arena and hear "RPI still sucks" from Clarkson fans than being at the SLU game.

January 30, 2009: Men's Hockey @ Dartmouth

Men's Hockey one night stand to Dartmouth (lost 2-5).
