Road Trips
November 11, 2023: Football @ Union (Dutchman Shoes Trophy Game) Day trip to Union College for Shoes (L 7-13). Largely uneventful game for the Engineers, however Ungorr Nassery had an interview that was featured in an article in the Daily Gazette.
November 3, 2023: Men's Hockey @ Union (Blackout weekend away game) Day Trip to Union College for the away Blackout game (W 8-6). A wild, high-scoring game from start to finish, as the Engineers opened the scoring 48 seconds in. Despite the offensive outburst from both teams, the Engineers maintained the lead for the rest of the game, though Union brought it to a one-goal lead multiple times (partially due to going 3 for 4 on the power play). Union scored to bring the game to 7-6 Engineers with 8:30 left, but the Engineers held on and got an empty-netter to win the game 8-6. The band also participated in a mega-band with the Union Pep Band in the second intermission. Also, the band was told off for holding up the Clarkson Sucks signs while on the video board.
November 30-December 1, 2023: Women's Hockey @ Princeton University and Quinnipiac University Overnight trip to Princeton University and Quinnipiac University to support the women's hockey team, losing both games 0-6 and 2-4. The most notable event from this trip was the band being misled by DirectTravel (the intermediary company required by the Union for reserving hotels), so the complementary breakfast promised to the band was not provided (becoming the subject of many angry emails between the managers, DirectTravel, and our contacts in the Union).
February 2, 2024: Men's Hockey @ Brown University
February 3, 2024: Men's Hockey @ Yale University
March 9, 2024: Men's Hockey @ Clarkson University Day trip to Clarkson University to support the men's hockey team for the first round of ECAC playoffs. The Engineers pulled out a stunning upset win, coming in as a 12 seed to upset the 5 seed at their arena. RPI built up a 3-0 lead up through halfway into the third period, then conceded two goals in the next 8 minutes. However, the Engineers held firm to win 3-2 and advance to the second round of the ECAC playoffs.
March 15-16, 2024: Men's Hockey ECAC Playoffs Round 2 @ Quinnipiac University Overnight trip to Quinnipiac University to support the men's hockey team in the second round of the ECAC playoffs. Unfortunately, the Engineer's Cinderella run ended with a 1-5, 2-5 sweep from Quinnipiac, though the second game featured a Sutter Muzzatti short-handed goal for the Engineers and 2 Quinnipiac empty-net goals at the end of the game so it was closer than the score line shows. The band performed a mega-band with the Quinnipiac Pep Band at both games and generally had good banter with them throughout the series despite the game scores.
