You should duck on that one.  RPI won the ECAC Championship because they =
won the tournament.  Finishing first in the regular season may make you =
the winner of something, but you aren't the ECAC Champions.
 
Look at the NHL.  If you have the best overall record, you get something =
called the President's Trophy, which no one has ever confused with the =
