White-Out 2012
White-Out 2012 was originally scheduled for the home game against Princeton, but about half-way through the season all mentions of the game were removed from the RPI Athletics website. In the weeks leading to the game, however, game notes still referred to the game as White-Out. The game itself was not advertised as White-Out on game day and there was no gift. As such, no one is really sure if White-Out happened or not.
