Playoffs
Football
- ECAC Northeast Championship Game @ Worcester State: Demolished them 55-29! Damn was it cold!
Hockey
- ECAC Playoffs - Round 1: @ Union: Won in 2 games: 2-1, 3-2 (you can't spell SUCKS without UC!). Won the second game on two short handed goals (on the same penalty) by Ben Barr.
- ECAC Playoffs - Round 2: @ Cornell: Lost in 2 games against the 800 pound gorilla: 2-3, 0-4. Due to a lack of available hotels in and around Ithaca, the band had to stay in Syracuse and take a bus about an hour each way to the games.
Other

- Hosted BOTH the Cornell and Colgate bands in Troy on the SAME night! While it made for a tense socializer, we got by with only one visit from Public Saftey (someone hit the red button).
