Road Trips

October 26-27, 2007: Governor's Cup

The band performed at all four games at the Governor's Cup (held at the Times Union Center in Albany). The hockey team won the tournament beating Union 3-2 and Colgate 2-0.

November 9-10, 2007: Women's Hockey @ North Country

Overnight trip to Clarkson (Lost 1-2 (ot)) and St. Lawrence (Lost 0-3).

  • The bus driver asked the Clarkson's women's hockey team where the hockey rink was.

November 10, 2007: Football @ Union

While much of the band was in the North Country for the women's overnight, 13 other members of the band went over to Schenectady to watch the football team play for the Dutchman's Shoes against Union. The team won 20-13, giving them their first win at Union since 1992 and their first successful defense of the Shoes since 1959. The win, combined with Hobart's victory over Rochester, gave RPI first place in the Liberty League and a berth in the NCAA tournament.

Following the football game, a few members of the band decided to make an unoffical roadtrip to Dartmouth (without instruments) to see the men's hockey team's game that evening, which they won 7-4.
