My perception of the NC$$ in Albany was that Clarkson had at least as
large a draw as Cornell if not larger. But Albany has a large number
of Clarkson alumni living locally. Anyone attending RPI-Clarkson
games would have a difficult time picking out who the home team is.
So its unclear how many fans live locally as opposed to driving
down from Potsdam. Its also unclear how many of the local Clarkson
alumni are willing to drive to Worcester.
