Has anyone seen this movie before? Here's a clue... Last year Clarkson played RPI in the first semifinal game while Brown and Harvard waited for the late game. Clarkson's band was in one corner diagonally opposed to the RPI band and Brown and Harvard filled the other two corner sections. I guess this weekend we will all feel like we've been there before in more ways than one. The only difference is the fact that this time Clarkson will be the "home" team in it's semifinal game where as last yearRPI wore the white jerseys. Lake placid is a great place for the ECAC's (especially for all of us from Potsdam since we don't have to go far and can get alot of fan support). The place will rock once again this year. All four teams had their share of difficulties and successes in the quarter finals. RPI had a lowsy game against Union on Friday as well as Brown's getting stunned by Vermont. Harvard and Calrkson narrowly missed disaster on friday but had better luck Saturday. All in all, once again it is ANYBODY's game and anyone who believes their favorite team is so superior that they will undoubtedly go all the way is probably in for a shock. I have a feeling that the Friday night game between RPI and Clarkson will be a shootout of sorts. Maybe a battle of the offense on that wider Olympic ice surface. We will have to see. By the way, congrats to Union on their season. I'm sure we will all hear more from them next year. Now down to business..... Let the games begin and the better TEAM and (band) win! LETS GO TECH! THE MISSION CONTINUES! M.C.
