Director of
Athletics
Lou Spiotti Jr.
Tiger sports fans have a lot to be proud of:
•In 2011, the Division I men’s hockey team clinched its
fourth Atlantic Hockey Association regular season title in
the past five seasons.
•The women’s hockey team spent most of last season ranked
No. 1 in the nation and reached the NCAA Division III
championship game.
•The men’s lacrosse team reached the NCAA Division III
semifinals.
•15 Tiger athletes were All-Americans in 2010-2011; and
three were Academic All-Americans.
•In the classroom, our 600 student-athletes carry a median
grade-point average of 3.22, which exceeds the overall
student body.
This year promises to be another exciting year as the men’s
hockey team looks to regain its top position in the Atlantic
Hockey Association. Our other 23 athletic teams have joined
the Liberty League and will make us proud. RIT fits in very
well with the intercollegiate athletic philosophy of the other
Liberty League institutions. The league includes Bard College,
Clarkson University, Hamilton College, Hobart and William
Smith Colleges, the University of Rochester, Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, St. Lawrence University, Skidmore College,
and Union College.
The ascent of our athletic teams is emblematic of the university’s momentum in the world of higher education. Today,
RIT is among the world’s leading career-focused, technological universities, which prides itself on blending innovation
and creativity into the overall experience. At RIT, you will
discover a university of artists and designers on the one hand,
and scientists, engineers and business leaders on the other.
The university is home to nine colleges offering over 200
undergraduate, master’s, and Ph.D. programs. With 17,550
students, RIT is among the top dozen largest private universities in the nation. More than half the university’s student
population hails from outside New York, representing all 50
states and nearly 100 countries.
As global competition heats up, RIT is positioned to be
an international leader. We rank third among U.S. private
universities in students graduating in the STEM disciplines
(science, technology, engineering, and math). Our cooperative education program, where students leave the campus
for work experience in their fields, is heralded annually as
among the best in the nation by U.S. News & World Report.
Here’s to another terrific season for all our student-athletes. Go Tigers!
While RIT Athletics experienced some very significant accomplishments to report in 2009-2010 (NCAA Frozen Four
appearance), the follow-up year of 2010-2011 was also quite
noteworthy. Our teams continued to compete at very high
levels. For starters, the overall winning percentage was the
highest on record in the past eight years. Leading the way
were two teams that made it well into national championship play. Women’s ice hockey skated through most of the
season without a single loss and on to the National Championship game for the first time in school history. Although
they came up short, the team made a tremendous statement
at the national level. In addition to this great team achievement, one of our finest players in the history of the program,
Sarah Dagg, was named National Player of the Year as well as
PAYCHEX Female College Athlete of the Year.
Men’s lacrosse followed up in the spring with an incredible run of 19 straight wins (a school record as well). After
winning the Empire 8 title, the Tigers went on to wins in
the NCAA Championships but were stopped short in the
semifinal game against Tufts University. Jake Coon, our head
lacrosse coach, was named Empire 8 and ECAC Coach of the
Year.
Men’s ice hockey followed up its storybook season in 200910 (NCAA Frozen Four) with yet another Atlantic Hockey
Regular Season Title and a near-miss NCAA appearance. The
team played before a record crowd of 10,556 at Blue Cross
Arena on Brick City Homecoming weekend.
In addition to these highlights, Tiger wrestler Mike
McInally (133-pound weight class) made it to the NCAA
Championship match, only to fall just short of taking home
the gold. Our men’s indoor track team won the Empire 8
Championship right here on home turf at the Gordon Field
House. Softball advanced to the league championship game
for the first time in eight years.
Our student-athletes’ successes were not limited to the
classroom. Last year our athletes attained an overall gradepoint average of 3.22, the highest in recent history.
There are many exciting events to come, the most significant of which is our entry into the prestigious Liberty League.
The 2011-2012 season marks our first year in this new league,
which will bring about many opportunities for our teams and
the university as a whole.
Looking ahead, it promises to be an exciting year for the
Tigers. The coaching staff, administrative team, and studentathletes have been working hard preparing for the coming
season. As always, we welcome your positive support and involvement. We could not possibly accomplish all that we have
without our loyal fans. So, please join us at as many games as
possible and share in the excitement of Tiger Sports!
The Center for Intercollegiate Athletics and Recreation is a
dynamic and multidimensional center. The Center is comprised of highly skilled and talented staff utilizing innovative
programs and facilities. We encourage all students—whether
they are student-athletes, members of an intramural program, or visitors to the fitness center—to participate in the
many excellent opportunities for involvement and wellness
provided by the Center.
Participation in our various wellness programs and athletic teams promotes the development of a healthy lifestyle
through the enrichment of the intellectual, cultural, physical,
spiritual, and emotional well-being of the individual. I invite
you to check out the Gordon Field House and Activities
Go Tigers!

2011 AHA Goaltender of the Year honor and was an INCH
Second Team selection. Lambert won the Atlantic Hockey
Leading scorer award in 2008. Overall, 15 Tigers have earned
31 All-AHA honors since 2006-07.
Many of Wilson’s players have graduated and moved on to
professional careers within their field of study. Last season the
team recorded a 3.23 GPA, exceeding the university average.
Thirteen players earned AHA All-Academic team honors.
While he was at Bowling Green, several of Wilson’s players
went on to successful careers in the National Hockey League.
In 2007, Steve Pinizzotto became the first Tiger to sign an
NHL contract at the D1 level. Pinizzotto was a key component of the two-time Calder Cup Champion Hershey Bears of
the AHL and may make his NHL debut in 2011-12. Since the
end of the 2006-07 season, 21 players have gone on to sign
pro contracts, including Tanev. Tyler Brenner signed with the
Toronto Maple Leafs in March 2011.
Tanev became RIT’s first player to suit up in an NHL
contest, making his debut with the Canucks on Jan. 18, 2011.
He played 29 regular season games and five playoff games for
the Canucks, including games five, six, and seven of the 2011
Stanley Cup Finals.
Wilson earned a degree in health, physical education,
and recreation from Bowling Green in 1984, and added his
master’s degree in education at BGSU in 1987. He lives in
Pittsford with his wife, Lynn, and children Stephanie (21)
and Stu (19). Stephanie graduated from Bowling Green in
2011. Stu is playing for the Cedar Rapids Roughriders of the
USHL in 2011-12, and has also committed to play at Yale in
2012-13.

Wayne Wilson enters his 13th season as head coach of the
RIT men’s hockey team. Fresh off of leading his Tigers to
their fourth Atlantic Hockey Association regular season
championship in the last five seasons in 2010-11, the Tigers
advanced to the AHA Championship game for the second
straight season, finishing with a 19-11-8 record. The Tigers
rattled off an 11-game unbeaten streak during the middle of
the season, and once again, were one of the highest scoring
teams in Division I.
The Guelph, Ontario, native has led the Tigers to a 11059-19 record since the 2006-07 season, including a 92-31-16
mark all-time in AHA play. In 2010-11, the Tigers tied their
own AHA record for fewest losses (5).
Wilson enjoyed a magical year behind the bench in 200910. He, along with the Tigers, accrued a bevy of individual
and team accomplishments, including the Spencer Penrose
Award as Division I National Coach of the Year. Wilson
became the first coach to win the National Coach of the Year
at both the Division I and Division III levels. He led RIT to
its first Atlantic Hockey Championship and a spot in the
NCAA Tournament. The Tigers captured the attention of the
country as they made their historic run to the Frozen Four,
playing in front of 34,954 fans at Ford Field in Detroit. RIT
finished the season with a school record 28 wins, including
a 12-game winning streak from Feb. 12 to March 27. RIT
finished the season ranked No. 10 in the USA Today/USA
Hockey Magazine National Poll, and was the only Division
I team to win its conference regular season and postseason
championships.
On Oct. 30, 2009, Wilson became the all-time leader in
coaching wins at RIT, picking up his 189th victory in a 6-2
win over Connecticut. On Jan. 15, 2010, Wilson recorded his
200th win, as RIT blanked Connecticut, 4-0.
During his tenure at RIT, Wilson has guided the Tigers to
a 235-114-33 record. In just six seasons of Division I play, he
has led the Tigers to several victories over nationally ranked
teams, including wins over No. 2 Denver, and No. 12 New
Hampshire in the NCAA East Regional on March 26-27,
2010. Denver is the highest ranked team that RIT has beaten
at the Division I level.
On Oct. 27, 2007, the Tigers defeated then No. 18 Cornell
4-1, and two months later, on Dec. 29, RIT shocked the
Division I hockey landscape, defeating No. 14 Minnesota at
the Dodge Holiday Classic in front of 10,046 fans at Mariucci
Arena. It was the first time Minnesota had lost a game in
their home tournament since the 1999-00 season. On Oct.
30, 2010, the Tigers defeated No. 14 Cornell for the second
straight time, 5-3 at famed Lynah Rink.
In 2008-09, Wilson led the Tigers to a 23-13-2 mark,
which included an 11-game winning streak, jump-started by
a win over No. 10 Air Force.
In 2007-08, forward Simon Lambert became the first RIT
player to be named a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award, college hockey’s finest honor.
Wilson is no stranger to success at the collegiate level.
He won a national title as a player at Bowling Green State
University in 1984. He also led the Falcons to three NCAA
Tournament appearances as an assistant coach.

Associate Head
Coach
Brian Hills
Assistant Coach
Dave Insalaco
Brian Hills begins his seventh season at RIT, and fifth as the
associate head coach. Hills, who joined RIT before its inaugural
season of Division I play in 2005, has been a vital reason for
RIT’s success. Hills received the prestigious Terry Flanagan
Award at the 2011 American Hockey Coaches Association
Banquet, honoring an outstanding assistant coach’s career body
of work.
Hills has played a major role in recruiting and building
a team that won the 2010 Atlantic Hockey and NCAA East
Region Championships and advanced to the Frozen Four.
In addition, Hills helped lead RIT to four Atlantic Hockey
regular season championships in five seasons.
Hills played an integral role in the development of defenseman Chris Tanev, the 2010 Atlantic Hockey Association
Rookie of the Year, who signed as a free agent with the Vancouver Canucks in May 2010. Tanev made his NHL debut on
Jan. 18, 2011, played 29 regular season games, and five playoff
games for the Canucks, including games five, six, and seven
of the 2011 Stanley Cup Finals.
Before his success at RIT, Hills was the head coach at the
State University College at Geneseo for four seasons. In his
last season at Geneseo, he led the Knights to a record of 18-74, a SUNYAC Championship, the quarterfinals of the NCAA
Division III Tournament, and a No. 7 ranking in the final
Division III poll. Hills amassed a record of 53-42-14 while
reviving the Geneseo hockey program. His record during his
final two seasons at Geneseo was 32-14-9.
Prior to coaching at Geneseo, Hills worked for seven years
at Division I Bowling Green. During that time he assisted
with Team Canada’s national team selection committee in
1997 and 1998. He also coached the Chur (Switzerland)
Junior Hockey Team in 1986-87.
Hills is a graduate of Bowling Green State University,
where he was a teammate of RIT Head Coach Wayne Wilson.
Hills was a two-time All-American and two-time Hobey
Baker Memorial Award finalist. He led the Central Collegiate
Hockey Association (CCHA) in scoring twice and was the
CCHA Player of the Year in 1983. In addition, he was a twotime CCHA All-Academic team member, and was a second
team CoSIDA/GTE Academic All-American as a senior.
Hills left Bowling Green as its all-time leading scorer and is
currently second on the list. He scored 116 goals and added
154 assists for 270 points in 156 games. In 1982-83 he set a
school single-season record that still stands with 94 points
(37-57-94) in 40 games.
After graduating from Bowling Green with a degree in
business administration, Hills spent 11 seasons playing professionally in Europe—eight years in Switzerland and three
in Germany. He won three gold medals with Team Canada
in Europe’s Spengler Cup before returning to his alma mater,
where he spent seven seasons as an assistant coach from
1994-2001.
“Brian has been an invaluable asset to the RIT hockey program,” said Wilson. “He is a proven winner and will no doubt
be an excellent Division I head coach.”
Hills lives in Honeoye Falls with his wife, Andrea. They
have two children, a daughter Alexandra (22), and son Trevor
(19). Alexandra is a senior forward on the 2011 NCAA National Runner-up RIT women’s hockey team. Trevor will play
the 2011-12 season for the Chilliwack Chiefs of the British
Columbia Hockey League.
Dave Insalaco enters his fourth season as an assistant coach
for the RIT men’s hockey program. His knack for finding
several quality recruits has helped the Tigers become one of
the top teams in Division I, as evidenced by the squad’s three
straight Atlantic Hockey Association regular season championships and trip to the 2010 NCAA Division I Frozen Four.
Insalaco spent two seasons with the Green Bay Gamblers
of the United States Hockey League. Midway through the
2007-08 season, he took over as the head coach and general
manager, mentoring current RIT seniors Cameron Burt and
Taylor McReynolds, and junior Chris Saracino. Insalaco began his coaching career in 2002-03 as a volunteer assistant at SUNY Brockport. In 2003-04, he moved
to SUNY Geneseo as an assistant coach. There, he worked
under current RIT Associate Head Coach Brian Hills for
two seasons.
In 2009 and 2011, Insalaco coached at the USA Hockey
Select Under-17 camp in Rochester with several of the nation’s top collegiate coaches. In 2011, he was chosen to coach
in Select 17 All-Star game.
Insalaco played two years of professional hockey, from
2000-02, for the Adirondack IceHawks of the United Hockey
League, recording 10 goals and 21 assists for 31 points in 128
career games. He quickly became a fan favorite in Adirondack, winning the Unsung Hero and 110 Percent Award as
voted on by the fans in 2001-02. Insalaco helped lead Adirondack to a division title in 2000-01.
The Greece native played collegiately at SUNY Brockport
from 1996-00. Insalaco tallied 47 goals and 62 assists for 109
points in 108 career games for the Golden Eagles. He was
an All-SUNYAC second team selection in 2000 and Chase
Memorial Academic Athletic Scholarship winner.
“Dave is a young, smart, energetic coach,” said RIT Head
Coach Wayne Wilson. “He excels in recruiting, skill development, and video analysis, and understands the game very
well. Every year Dave has taken on more responsibility and is
the nuts and bolts of our team’s success.”
In addition, Insalaco’s sister Kim was a member of the
2006 United States Women’s Olympic Hockey Team that
earned a bronze medal in Turin, Italy.
Insalaco, who earned his bachelor’s and master’s degrees in
education from SUNY Brockport, lives in Fairport with his
wife, Erika, and newborn son, David.

Volunteer Assistant
Coach
Mike Germain
Athletic Trainer/
Strength/
Conditioning Coach
Mike Germain returns for his sixth season as a volunteer
assistant coach. He works primarily with the Tiger goaltenders. Under his tutelage, Shane Madolora led all Division I
goaltenders with the best save percentage in 2010-11, while
Jared DeMichiel led the nation in wins the season prior.
Germain came to the Tigers after spending a season as an
assistant coach with the American Hockey League’s Rochester Americans. Before that, Germain was an associate coach
for the Rochester Junior Americans for four seasons. For
three seasons, he was the head coach of the Greece Lightning,
one of the top high school teams in Rochester. In his first
season, Germain led the Lightning to 17 wins and the New
York state quarterfinals.
A 1994 graduate of the State University College at Cortland and standout goaltender for the Red Dragons, Germain
set single-season school records that still stand for most wins
(17, 1992-93) and shutouts (2, 1991-92). He is also the Red
Dragons all-time leader in wins (33) and shutouts (3).
Germain, who has a master’s degree in educational
administration from Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts
and a second master’s degree in liberal studies from the State
University College at Brockport, started his coaching career
as an assistant at Brockport from 1998-2000.
“Mike has become an integral part of our program,” said
RIT Head Coach Wayne Wilson. “His work with our goaltenders has been invaluable as evidenced by the improvement
of Louis Menard and Jocelyn Guimond early on, then seeing
Jared DeMichiel and Shane Madolora enjoy tremendous success over the last two seasons.”
The Germain name should be familiar to RIT fans, as
Mike’s brother Lou played in goal for one season with the Tigers before transferring to SUNY Geneseo, where he earned
All-American honors.
Germain is an assistant principal at John Marshall High
School in the Rochester City School District. He lives in
Irondequoit with his wife, Melissa, and son, Jake.
Tim Insko begins his third season as the strength and conditioning coach and athletic trainer at RIT. He is primarily
responsible for working with the Tiger hockey team on and
off the ice. In addition, he supervises the Tiger Power Den
and works in strength and conditioning with all 600 RIT
student-athletes.
Prior to arriving at RIT, Insko spent three seasons working with the USA Hockey Bantam Camp in Ames, Iowa.
During that time, he honed his craft at Division I Iowa State
University, while obtaining a second bachelor’s degree in kinesiology with an emphasis in athletic training, along with a
master’s degree in educational leadership and policy studies.
He worked with the football and track and field teams, and
mentored all first- and second-year athletic training students.
Insko was awarded the Robert Watkins and Mary Swartz
Athletic Training Student Award and was a Special Olympics
and Drake Relays volunteer athletic training student while at
Iowa State.
From 2001-06, Insko was a strength and conditioning
specialist at Performace Therapies, P.C., in Coralville, Iowa.
He administered strength and conditioning programs for
the Cedar Rapids Roughriders hockey team and several high
schools in the region. In addition, he was a physical therapy
aide for one year at the University of Iowa Hospitals.
Insko received his first bachelor’s degree in psychology
in 1999 from the University of Iowa. He is certified by the
National Athletic Training Association, and is a certified
strength and conditioning specialist and corrective exercise
specialist.
Insko resides in Webster with his wife, Becki.

Tiger fans always make their presence known on the road.
Members of the RIT community traveled in full force for the
2010 NCAA Tournament run.

Nicholas Charron conduct the cermonial puck drop to RIT’s Andrew Favot and UMass
Lowell’s Scott Campbell before RIT hosted Colgate during Brick City Homecoming and
Family Weekend at Blue Cross Arena on Oct. 16, 2010. The Tigers drew a RIT regular season
record sellout crowd of 10,556 fans. The Tigers raised just under $7,000 for former Rochester American and UMass Lowell standout, the late Craig Charron with the sale of the special
black jerseys worn during the game.

The 2011-12 RIT men’s hockey team will look to win
its fourth straight Atlantic Hockey regular season
title, and advance to the NCAA Tournament for the
second time in three seasons. Last season, the Tigers
were one goal shy of advancing to the NCAA Tournament, finishing with a 19-11-8 record. Just two
seasons ago, RIT emerged as the country’s Cinderella
story, advancing to the NCAA Frozen Four.
The Tigers have a sparkling 110-59-19 record over
the past five years, winning at least 19 games in each
season. Once again, the Tigers return a strong group
of playoff-tested veterans and bring in an extremely
talented group of newcomers.
RIT will play 34 regular season games this season,
opening with a tough AHA conference game against
Niagara on Oct. 8 at Ritter Arena. The following
weekend, the Tigers host St. Lawrence in what could
possibly be a sold-out house at Blue Cross Arena in
downtown Rochester on Oct. 15, as the focal point of
Brick City Homecoming and Family Weekend. RIT
will also play non-conference home games against
ECAC foes Union and Rensselaer, both of whom
advanced to the 2011 NCAA Tournament. On Dec.
29-30, the Tigers travel to Vermont to play Lake
Superior State and Ferris State of the CCHA in the
Catamount Cup. The following weekend, RIT rings
in 2012 with a pair of road games at perennial power
Wisconsin, in what will be a rematch of the 2010
Frozen Four semifinal, won by the Badgers.
“We are playing a pretty challenging non-conference schedule,” said RIT Head Coach Wayne Wilson,
now in his 13th year with the Tigers. “We jump right
into conference play against Niagara and then face St.
Lawrence in front of what should be a great crowd as
part of our Brick City Homecoming Weekend. Union
and Rensselaer were both (NCAA) tournament
teams last year, and then we head to Vermont to play
two good teams in Ferris State and Lake Superior
State. Obviously, we know how good Wisconsin is,
and to play two games in front of huge crowds will
be exciting. We like to play a tough non-conference
schedule that challenges us and makes us better for
league and postseason play,” said Wilson.
Twenty-seven of RIT’s 34 games will be against
Atlantic Hockey foes. The Tigers will play Niagara,
Robert Morris, Canisius, Mercyhurst, and Air
Force three times this season, and will play Army,
Connecticut, Holy Cross, Sacred Heart, American
International, and Bentley twice.
Wilson, the all-time leader in coaching wins at
RIT and winner of the 2010 Spencer Penrose Award
as the Division I Coach of the Year, is thrilled that
RIT has become not only a top AHA team, but one
that has achieved national prominence.
“Our goal hasn’t changed since we became eligible
for postseason play (in 2007-08),” said Wilson. “Ultimately, our goal is to advance to the NCAA Tournament. That means putting ourselves in contention
for home-ice advantage in the league tournament,
and winning the Atlantic Hockey Championship.
From there you prepare one game at a time. With the
success we had in 2010, you never know what that
means, it could be one and done, but we now know a
Frozen Four berth is attainable.”
Three defensemen, seniors Chris Haltigin and
Daniel Spivak, along with junior Chris Saracino will
serve as the 2011-12 captains. Haltigin was an assistant captain last season.
The Tigers return 19 players from last season’s
squad and Wilson and his staff have recruited seven
highly touted newcomers.
E Forwards
Despite the loss of its top two scorers from last
season, the Tigers return a strong group of talented
forwards from an offense that finished 13th nationally in goals per game a year ago. With the addition
of a group of accomplished freshmen, the offense
has a chance to be even more dynamic this season.
Senior Cameron Burt, along with junior Adam
Hartley, and sophomores Ben Lynch, Adam Mitchell, and Mike Colavecchia will help shoulder the load
offensively in 2011-12. Burt battled through injuries
last season, after recording a team-high 47 points in
2009-10 en route to earning AHA and NCAA East
Regional All-Tournament Team honors. Hartley
recorded 13 points in his first 13 games last season
before finishing with 25 points on 11 goals and 14
assists. Lynch ended the season strong en route
to tallying 30 points in 37 games, while Mitchell
chipped in with 11 goals, tied for third on the team.
Colavecchia recorded 19 points and showed flashes
of brillance.
Seniors Mark Cornacchia, Scott Knowles, and
Taylor McReynolds and juniors Jeff Smith, and
Bryan Potts will be called upon to contribute more
offensively. All five played a key role in RIT’s run to
the 2010 Frozen Four and know what it takes to win
at this level.
Talented newcomers Matt Garbowsky, Brad
McGowan, Brandon Thompson, and Brad Reid will
look to crack the lineup immediately and provide a
spark offensively. All four players enjoyed tremendous success at the junior level and will look to
continue that at RIT.
“Up front, we lost four forwards that made a big
impact offensively, and all had important roles on
our team,” said Wilson. “That being said, I really like
what we return, along with one of the most talented
group of newcomers we’ve had come in.”
E Defensemen
The defensive unit is arguably RIT’s deepest position, as seven players return from a squad that led
the AHA in goals against average a year ago. The
Tigers allowed just two goals per contest over their
last 23 games and recorded six shutouts during that
stretch. RIT has a strong blend of offensive, stay at
home, and physical defensemen that will help them
be successful in 2011-12.
Senior captain Chris Haltigin battled through
injuries last season, but is still regarded as one of the
top defensemen in the conference. He was a 2010
NCAA East Region All-Tournament Team selection
and along with rock solid defender and tri-captain
Daniel Spivak will lead the squad on and off the ice
Junior tri-captain Chris Saracino enjoyed a tremendous season in 2010-11, leading all RIT defensemen
with 20 points, while recording a team-best plus-28
rating. Saracino was named an All-AHA second
team selection.
Senior Trevor Eckenswiller was plus-14 in 28
games last season and is completely healthy after
suffering a season-ending injury in 2009-10 and
nagging maladies in 2010-11. Sophomores Greg
Noyes, Nolan Descoteaux, and Eliot Raibl all gained
valuable experience last season and will be expected
to contribute more in 2010-11. Noyes tallied 17
points and was plus-19 in 36 games last season,
while Descoteaux played in 35 contests.
Freshman Stuart Brownell, who stands 6-foot-4,
will look to follow in RIT’s rich tradition of outstanding blue-liners.
“We return seven defensemen from a team that
led the league in goals against average,” said Wilson.
“This is an extremely talented group of defensemen
that can move the puck, show offensive ability, and
be physical. Our leadership will come from our
defense this season.”
E Goalies
RIT returns senior Shane Madolora, who enjoyed a
breakout season in 2010-11, finishing 17-3-7, while
leading the nation with a .935 save percentage, and
six shutouts, to go along with a sparkling 1.93 goals
against average, third best in Division I. He began
the season with a 20-game unbeaten streak en route
to being named the AHA Goaltender of the Year
and earning All-AHA first team honors. He was
also named an Inside College Hockey Second Team
All-American.
Sophomore Josh Watson returns after a promising rookie season. His three starts came against
Nebraska-Omaha, Union, and Merrimack, all of
whom advanced to the 2011 NCAA Tournament.
Freshman Jordan Ruby led the Wellington Dukes to
the 2011 Ontario Junior Hockey League Championship and a spot in the prestigious Royal Bank Cup.
“We really feel great about our goaltending situation,” said Wilson. “Shane (Madolora) had such
a tremendous season last year and Josh (Watson)
will continue to get better. Jordan’s (Ruby) junior
numbers were outstanding last year. We have three
number-one type goaltenders.”
RIT will once again have an eye on the postseason, as they battle the top teams in the country.
The Tigers will look to secure a top seed for the
Atlantic Hockey Championship, win the postseason
tournament, and try to make another deep run into
the month of April, with Tampa, Fla. and the Frozen
Four in its sights.

2010-11 Statistics
2010-11 Season in Review
Fan’s Choice and Art Thomas Teammate awards.
Brenner was an All-AHA second team selection and
was co-winner of RIT’s Greg Moss Hard Hat Award.
Brenner finished his RIT career with 55 goals, tied
for the most at the Division I level. In late March,
Brenner signed a professional contract with the
Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League.
Freshman Ben Lynch recorded 20 points over his
last 17 games to finish third on the team in scoring
with 30 points. He was named RIT’s Craig Lauzon
Award Winner as the Rookie of the Year. Junior
Cameron Burt struggled through injuries and a
mid-season transition to playing defense to finish
with 28 points on six goals and 22 assists in 33
games. Sophomore Adam Hartley scored 14 points
in his first 13 games, finishing with 25 points on
11 goals and 14 assists.
Senior forwards Mike Janda and Sean Murphy
finished their collegiate careers in style. Janda tallied
a career-high 10 goals, and 14 points and was plus-7.
Murphy, a captain, chipped in with 13 points and tallied four goals over his last five games, including two
in the AHA Semifinal against Connecticut. He was
an AHA All-Tournament Team selection.
Juniors Scott Knowles, a gritty forward, tallied 13
points, tying a RIT single-season Division I record
with three shorthanded goals. Classmate Mark
Cornacchia was one of the squad’s best penalty killers, chipping in with 10 points. Fellow junior Taylor
McReynolds recorded a career-high 14 points, while
leading all of Division I and setting a RIT singleseason record with 138 penalty minutes.
The first-year duo of Mike Colavecchia and Adam
Mitchell showed flashes of brilliance during the
season. Colavecchia chipped in with 19 points in 35
games, while Mitchell scored 11 goals and added six
assists. Mitchell scored the overtime game-winner
in RIT’s first win of the season over Robert Morris.
Sophomores Bryan Potts and Jeff Smith improved as
the season progressed. Potts finished with six points,
including a career-high effort of two goals and an
assist against Robert Morris. Smith recorded a goal
and an assist in RIT’s win over Cornell.
RIT’s defensive unit, which started the season
with three first-year players in the lineup, improved
greatly throughout the season to post six shutouts
and allow just under two goals per game over the
final 23 contests of the season.
Chris Saracino enjoyed a breakout season, tallying
20 points on five goals and 15 assists, while leading
the team with a plus-28 rating to earn All-AHA
second team honors. Defensive partner Greg Noyes
stepped right into the lineup, recording 17 points
and a plus-19 rating.
Junior captain Chris Haltigin battled through
nagging injuries to finish with 14 points, while
fellow junior Trevor Eckenswiller rebounded from
a season-ending injury in 2009-10 to finish with a
plus-14 rating along with eight assists.
Junior Daniel Spivak evolved into a rock solid,
physical stay-at-home defenseman, and was rewarded by winning RIT’s Greg Moss Hard Hat Award.
Freshmen Nolan Descoteaux and Eliot Raibl showed
plenty of improvement during the season and will be
called upon to step even more in 2011-12.
In goal, Jan Ropponen picked up a pair of wins,
including the victory over Cornell. Josh Watson saw
action in four games, with all three starts coming
against teams that made the NCAA Tournament
(Nebraska-Omaha, Union, and Merrimack).

When RIT made the move to Division I in 2005, it was rare to
hear about RIT hockey standouts continuing their dream on
the ice after wowing the Ritter Arena faithful. Since 2007, 21
Tigers have moved on to play in the professional ranks. These
Tigers are living their dream of playing pro hockey, spread out
all over the globe, from Quebec to Italy, Germany to Slovenia,
Belgium to Texas.
In April 2010, Chris Tanev was a freshman defenseman playing
a key role in RIT’s legendary run to the Frozen Four. Just 14
months later, Tanev had signed a professional contract with the
Vancouver Canucks, becoming RIT’s first player to skate in the
NHL. He played in 29 regular season games and games five, six,
and seven of the Stanley Cup Finals. The 21-year-old defenseman drew praise from several national media outlets in the
hockey world for his poise and strong play. Tanev will look to
earn a full-time spot with the Canucks for the 2011-12 season.
After the 2011 season, Tyler Brenner signed with the Toronto
Maple Leafs and will look to make an immediate impact.
Bobby Raymond, a 2009 graduate, was part of the 2011 Calder
Cup Champion Binghamton Senators.
Steve Pinizzotto was the first Tiger to leave school early, signing a contract with the Washington Capitals in 2007, after his
sophomore season. Pinizzotto played a key role in leading the
Hershey Bears of the American Hockey League to back-to-back
Calder Cup Championships in 2009 and 2010. In July 2011, he
signed with the Vancouver Canucks.
Several RIT alumni, such as 2008 Hobey Baker Finalist Simon
Lambert, Justin Hofstetter, Matt Crowell, and Stephen Burns
currently play in Europe. Numerous players, including Jared
DeMichiel, Dan Ringwald, and Andrew Favot, play in the ECHL,
trying to fulfill a lifelong dream.
Chris Tanev played in 29 games with the Vancouver Canucks in 2010-11, plus games five,
six, and seven of the Stanley Cup Finals. He will
look to play a greater role in 2011-12.
Tyler Brenner signed with the Toronto
Maple Leafs in 2011 and will look to
make an impact right away.
Tanev, Pinizzotto, Raymond, DeMichiel, and Brenner were
invited to NHL Training Camps in 2011.
“It’s exciting knowing that their dreams of playing in the NHL
and receiving interest from NHL teams is that much more attainable now,” says RIT Head Coach Wayne Wilson. “We’ve gone
from a program where there was very little recognition in the
pro ranks to now having guys that have a chance to make a
name for themselves five, six, or even 10 years down the road
at the highest level. Our players consider themselves Tigers
for life and have a committed sense of pride in what they accomplished at RIT.”
As an assistant coach at Bowling Green, Wilson (1988-99)
mentored several players who have enjoyed excellent careers
in the NHL, including Norris Trophy winner and three-time
All-Star defenseman Rob Blake, while he was an assistant coach
at Bowling Green University. Wilson also coached former NHL
players Dan Bylsma (2009 Stanley Cup Champion Head Coach
of the Pittsburgh Penguins), Todd Reirden (Pittsburgh Penguins
Assistant Coach), Kevin Dahl, Nelson Emerson, Mike Johnson,
Ken Klee, Peter Ratchuk, Paul Ysebart, and former Rochester
American and Buffalo Sabre Brian Holzinger.
Steve Pinizzotto was called up to the Washington Capitals on March 24, 2009, but did
not play. He will begin 2011 training camp
with the Vancouver Canucks.
Bobby Raymond helped lead the
Binghamton Senators of the AHL to the
2011 Calder Cup. He was invited to the
Ottawa Senators Training Camp.

Strength and Conditioning
RIT Facilities
The primary goal of the RIT Tiger Strength and
Conditioning team is to provide a safe and effective
environment for the student-athletes where they can
reach their full fitness potential.
RIT Head Strength and Conditioning Coach Tim
Insko’s philosophy is to relentlessly push the pace
of the workouts to maximize an individual’s mental
and physical development within a cohesive team
atmosphere.
“Everything we do in the weight room has the
ultimate purpose of winning on the ice,” said Insko.
Insko uses a research-based approach to
address common injuries in a sport while
developing explosiveness and core stability.
“My belief is that a well-trained, mentally tough
athlete will always beat talent alone,” said Insko.

where more than 60,000 undergraduate and graduate students call Rochester “home.” RIT’s 1,300-acre
campus is located in the suburb of Henrietta, about
six miles from downtown.
First settled in the early 1800s, Rochester quickly
became the largest flour-producing city in the world.
Today, the community is frequently labeled the
“World’s Imaging Center,” due in part to the corporate influence of Eastman Kodak, Xerox, and Bausch
& Lomb. The area is also home to high-profile
companies like Wegmans Food Markets, Paychex,
and Constellation Brands. Residents can see several
high-profile off-Broadway shows at Geva Theatre or
the Auditorium Theater, or attend one of the city’s
several weekend festivals such as Corn Hill or Park
Avenue. Good suburban public schools, affordable housing, and ease of commute are also some
E Explore the Finger Lakes and Lake Ontario
From the wine country of the Finger Lakes (nearly
100 wineries) to the shores of Lake Ontario, Greater
Rochester has a rich and vibrant character. You
will find historic architecture, festivals, and plenty
of shopping, dining, and entertainment options
throughout the region. If you love the outdoors,
there are parks, beaches, golf courses, ski resorts,
mountains, gorges, lakes, and streams to provide opportunities for recreation and sightseeing. RIT is also
a proud partner of the New York Wine & Culinary
Center, located in nearby Canandaigua.
A sports town during any season, Rochester is
home to several professional sports teams, including
the Red Wings (baseball), Americans (ice hockey),
Knighthawks (indoor lacrosse), and the Rhinos (soccer). Each summer, the Buffalo Bills training camp
comes to town. Rochester is also home to an annual
major tournament on the LPGA tour at Locust Hill
Country Club, the LPGA Championship. Worldranked Oak Hill Country Club also hosted the 2008
PGA Senior Championship and will host the 2013
PGA Championship. In addition, the fabled course
has been the site of many other major golf championships, including the 1989 U.S. Open and 1995
Ryder Cup.
If that is not enough, you can always cheer on the
Tigers, where RIT is home to 24 varsity teams. Visit

Academic & Athletic Success
Scott Knowles

Mike Dempsey
Mike McInally
Sarah Dagg
For more than a century, the standard for intercollegiate athletics has been established at Rochester Institute of Technology, where student-athletes excel both in the classroom and
in competition.
U.S. News & World Report has named RIT one of the
leading comprehensive universities in the north in terms
of academic reputation for more than two decades. RIT’s
student-athletes are no exception.
Last year, student-athletes posted an impressive 3.22
grade-point average on a 4.0 scale, exceeding the university
average of 3.05. During the spring quarter, an unprecedented
74 athletes recorded perfect 4.0 GPAs. The men’s hockey team
held the second highest grade-point average among all RIT
men’s athletics teams at 3.23. Scott Knowles (marketing)
and Trevor Eckenswiller (biomedical sciences) recorded the
two highest grade-point averages on the men’s hockey team
in 2010-11.
Today, RIT offers 24 varsity sports, including men’s and
women’s cross country, men’s and women’s crew, men’s and
women’s soccer, women’s tennis, and women’s volleyball in
the fall. Winter competition includes men’s and women’s
basketball, men’s and women’s ice hockey, men’s and women’s
swimming, men’s and women’s indoor track, and wrestling.
Spring competition features baseball, men’s and women’s
crew, men’s and women’s lacrosse, softball, men’s tennis, and
men’s and women’s outdoor track.
Each year, more than 550 student-athletes compete on
RIT athletics teams. Ten percent of these athletes are deaf or
hard-of-hearing students enrolled in the National Technical
Institute for the Deaf, one of RIT’s nine colleges.
With the exception of men’s ice hockey, which will be playing its seventh season as a Division I program, RIT is a Division III institution that joined the NCAA in 1958. The Tigers
compete in the Atlantic Hockey Association and Eastern
Collegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC), and this season, the
Division III programs join the Liberty League.
Numerous student-athletes have been honored for their
excellent work not only on the field, but in the classroom.
This past season, men’s track and field and wrestling standouts Mike Dempsey and Mike McInally shared the Male
Senior Athlete of the Year, while Sarah Dagg of the women’s
hockey team garnered the Female Athlete of the Year Award.
In just two seasons at RIT, Dempsey rewrote the record
book in the pole vault, earning four All-American honors.
In 2010, Dempsey earned national runner-up honors at 2010
NCAA Division III Indoor and Outdoor Track and Field
Championships. He was named the Empire 8 Conference and
United States Track and Field and Cross Country Coaches
Association (USTFCCCA) Atlantic Region Field Athlete of
the Year. In 2011, Dempsey placed fifth at the NCAA Indoor
Championships, and seventh at the Outdoor Championships, earning All-American honors in each. He holds the
school record in both the indoor and outdoor pole vault with
identical leaps of 5.16 meters. Dempsey, a 2011 Capital One/
Co-SIDA Academic All-American, was a seven-time Empire
8 and five-time RIT Male Athlete of the Week.
McInally is one of the most decorated wrestlers in RIT’s
storied history. A two-time national runner-up and four-
time participant in the NCAA Championships, McInally
finished his career at RIT with a 141-20 record, including
a 56-2 record in dual meets. After finishing 68-14 with a
pair of NCAA Championship appearances over his first two
seasons, McInally broke out as a junior in 2008-09, winning
his first 31 matches at 125 lbs., before finishing 35-2, earning
national runner-up honors. After missing all but one match
in 2009-10 due to a serious neck injury, he came back strong
in 2010-11, winning his first 20 matches at 133 lbs. en route
to his second national runner-up honor, finishing 37-4.
McInally’s 141 wins and 56 dual victories are the second
most in program history. He is a 10-time RIT Male Athlete,
two-time ECWC Rookie and four-time ECWC Player of the
Week, and won 10 tournament titles in his four seasons.
Dagg was named the Laura Hurd Award Winner as the
Division III National Women’s Ice Hockey Player of the
Year in 2011. A three-year captain, Dagg led RIT to by far
its greatest season in program history, as the Tigers finished
as the national runner-up. The Tigers were the No. 1 team
in the nation for a majority of the season, finishing 26-2-2,
while winning their first ECAC West Championship. Dagg
finished with 18 goals and 24 assists in 30 games, fourth-best
nationally, en route to earning 2011 ECAC West Player of
the Year and All-ECAC West first team honors. In addition,
Dagg was named a RBK AHCA All-American for the third
straight year and earned USCHO.com first team honors.
Dagg enjoyed a storybook four-year career at RIT, leading
the Tigers to an 85-17-7 mark, while becoming the program’s
all-time leading scorer with 154 points (63-91-154) in 109
games. After scoring 27 points as a freshman, she led the
Tigers in scoring with 40 points (16-24-40), as RIT finished
21-3-2 in 2008-09 and was ranked as high as No. 2 nationally.
She was named an All-ECAC West second team selection
and an RBK AHCA second team All-American. In 2009-10,
Dagg set a career-high with 45 points (17-28-45) and was an
RBK AHCA first team All-American, and earned All-ECAC
West first team honors.
Lou Spiotti Jr., Executive Director for the Center of
Intercollegiate Athletics, believes that the student-athletes’
remarkable cumulative GPA is a testament to their hard work
not only the playing field, but the classroom as well.
“The RIT student-athletes epitomize the Greek ideal of
‘sound body, sound mind,’” said Spiotti. “The discipline and
work ethic required to succeed in athletics are transferable skills. Our athletes succeed in many aspects of their
lives because they understand and embrace the world of
competition and achievement both on the field of play and
in the classroom. They push themselves to reach for higher
levels of success. I believe that for them to be as good as they
have demonstrated takes focus, discipline, goal setting, good
health and stamina, and excellent time management skills.
All these things and more help them not only to progress
through their college years, but also to excel. Thus, we have
our student-athletes achieving a 3.22 overall grade-point
average, which is significantly higher than the general student
population.”

Atlantic Hockey at a Glance
A new chapter in the history of college hockey was
ushered into existence when the Atlantic Hockey
Association was created on June 30, 2003, by nine
charter members. The sixth Division I men’s ice
hockey conference arose when the founding members—American International, Bentley, Canisius,
Connecticut, Holy Cross, Mercyhurst, Quinnipiac, Sacred Heart, and the United States Military
Academy (Army)—required an organization that
represented their specific needs. The group of nine
broke away from their former conference affiliation,
the Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference, and formed
a conference specific to the sport of ice hockey.
Robert DeGregorio, former commissioner of
Hockey East, was named the conference’s first commissioner and played an integral role in the development of the league as play between the nine squads
began in the fall of 2003. As the season unfolded, the
fledgling conference made its mark in college hockey
with victories over non-conference opponents,
along with an exciting chase to claim the first-ever
regular season title. Holy Cross secured the title, and
followed up that feat by capturing the tournament
championship, sending the Crusaders to the NCAA
Tournament for the first time in the program’s, and
the league’s, history.
Since the 2006-07 season, AHA’s conference
championship has been held at Blue Cross Arena in
downtown Rochester.
RIT, in its first season as a member of the conference, won the regular season title but was unable
to participate in the Atlantic Hockey Tournament
due to NCAA regulations. An all-service academy
championship ensued, as Air Force defeated Army
to earn a berth into the 2007 NCAA Tournament.
During the 2007-08 season, five teams entered
the final two weekends of the regular season with a
chance to secure the top seed. Army earned the top
seed, but it was Air Force that defeated Mercyhurst
in double overtime to claim its second straight
conference title.
In 2008-09, Air Force and RIT split the regular
season title, both with what was then an AHA record-setting total of 42 points. For the third straight
season, the Falcons won the conference tournament,
blanking Mercyhurst.
RIT set conference records with 22 wins and 45
points, rolling to the 2009-10 AHA regular season
title. It was no different in the postseason, as RIT
outscored its foes 18-5 in winning its four playoff
games, including a 6-1 win over Sacred Heart in the
championship game.
Last season, RIT won its fourth regular season
title in the last five seasons, setting up a championship contest against Air Force. The Tigers would
out-shoot Air Force 40-24, but could not solve
Jason Torf, who was perfect in goal for the Falcons.
Jacques Lamoureux scored the game’s lone goal on a
power-play late in the second period to lift Air Force
to its fourth AHA Championship in five years with
a 1-0 win.
Success in the classroom is as important as
success on the ice among the member institutions of
Atlantic Hockey. A total of 140 student-athletes were
named to the 2009-10 Atlantic Hockey All-Academic squad in recognition of their outstanding scholastic achievement. Atlantic Hockey athletes have
also contributed their time off the ice to numerous
charitable organizations as a way of saying thanks to
their many supporters.
Currently, Atlantic Hockey spans a total of five
states: four in the northeast and one western state,
reaching from the Atlantic Ocean to the banks of
the Great Lakes and out to the Colorado Rocky
Mountains. Robert Morris and Niagara will join
the conference for the 2010-11 season. Members
reside in Connecticut (University of Connecticut,
Quinnipiac, Sacred Heart), Massachusetts (American
International, Bentley, Holy Cross), New York (Army,
Canisius, Niagara, RIT), Pennsylvania (Mercyhurst,
Robert Morris), and Colorado (Air Force).

RIT players and coaches are extremely active in
the Rochester community, working with several
causes over the last few seasons. On Jan. 30,
2010, RIT fans traded orange apparel for pink
over the weekend and in the process raised
$21,248 to fight cancer. Zeta Tau Alpha sorority
teamed up with the RIT men’s and women’s hockey teams in the “Pink Rink” event, where Ritter
Arena transformed into a sea of pink. Pink Tiger
jerseys were auctioned off and proceeds reached
$9,248. Jersey proceeds went to Rochester
General Hospital’s Lipson Cancer Center. Zeta Tau
Alpha also raised more than $12,000 from T-shirt
sales. Those sales benefited the Susan G. Komen
Cancer Foundation. Last season, the Tigers raised
$7,000 through the sale of special black jerseys to
support the late Craig Charron of the Rochester
Americans in his fight against cancer.

RIT’s 2010 Frozen Four Run
2011-12 Opponent Profiles
The 2009-10 RIT men’s hockey team became the story of
Division I college hockey after enjoying a magical run to
the NCAA Frozen Four in just its fifth season at the Division I
level. The Tigers became the first Atlantic Hockey Association
squad to make the Frozen Four, and emerged as a national
powerhouse. Head Coach Wayne Wilson won the Spencer
Penrose Award as the National Coach of the Year.
RIT was the only team in Division I to win both its conference
regular season and conference championships. The Tigers set
AHA records with 22 wins and 45 points en route to capturing their third regular season title in four seasons. The Tigers
continued their success into the Atlantic Hockey Tournament, sweeping Connecticut in the quarterfinals before shutting out Canisius 4-0 in the semifinals, and trouncing Sacred
Heart 6-1 in the championship game on March 20.
From there, it was on to the NCAA East Regional in Albany,
where RIT upset No. 2 overall seed Denver 2-1, and advanced
to the Frozen Four after defeating No. 12 New Hampshire 6-2
in the regional final.
RIT’s storybook season ended in the Frozen Four semifinal to
national runner-up Wisconsin in front of a program record
crowd of 34,954 fans. The Tigers finished the season ranked
No. 10 in the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine national poll,
and were ranked as high as ninth.
RIT set school records with 28 wins, and a 12-game winning
streak. After starting 0-5, RIT rolled to a 28-7-1 mark over its
final 36 games.
The Tigers finished fifth nationally in goals per game (3.54)
and fourth in scoring defense (2.20), a school record. RIT was
fourth nationally in scoring margin (1.34). RIT was the only
team to be in the top five nationally in all three categories.

Division I Team Records/Weekly Honors
Men’s Hockey History
In 1961, Director of Athletics L.A. Alexander Jr.
wrote a letter to the Athletic Committee recommending that the committee approve the establishment of an intercollegiate hockey team at Rochester
Institute of Technology. The measure was approved
four years later in 1965.
The hockey club was founded in the fall of 1959.
It was given a budget of $1,020 to purchase the
initial equipment to outfit 16 players. At that time,
the team participated in the Monroe County Amateur Hockey Association, playing 13 games against
three other league teams. The players paid $195 out
of their own pockets for these games and coached
themselves along the way, as they didn’t have the
money to hire a head coach.
The next year, with a budget of just $927, the
season was composed entirely of away games,
because the league was dissolved due to a lack of ice
time at the Rochester War Memorial. With the help
of Alexander, games were played against Hamilton
JV, Colgate freshmen, Ithaca, Cornell freshmen, the
University of Rochester, the University of Toronto,
and the local hockey club “The Rockets.”
In 1961-62, the budget was increased to
$1,113.20 with the help of the RIT Student Council.
There were 14 games played on home ice, which at
the time was the Rochester War Memorial. Those
interested in playing on the team exceeded 45 men.
This is the first year they had actual guidance, as
James E. Musker became the volunteer coach. With
the new NCAA rules, the school was required to
purchase helmets for the team at a cost of $62.50.
Although hockey had never been played at the
Ritter-Clark Rink (as it was previously called), it
can be said that the facility was built with hockey
in mind. This is verified by two important factors:
a) the rink was built to hockey specifications as to
length and width of ice surface, and b) inserts were
provided in the concrete floor to accommodate
hockey goals. In 1961, backed by the Student Association and President Marvin Pozefsky, renovations
were made to the Ritter-Clark Rink so that the RIT
men’s ice hockey team could call it their own.
In 1962, the team formed a league with other
teams in the area that faced similar problems, either
with money, ice time, or scholarships. The league
was known as the Finger Lakes Collegiate Hockey
League (FLCHL). It consisted of six schools: RIT,
SUNY Brockport, Hobart, Ithaca, the University of
Rochester, and Syracuse University.
Two years later, in 1964, RIT men’s ice hockey
became an official varsity sport. In 1972-73, the
team became a member of the ECAC Division III.
The ECAC was composed of two divisions, East and
West. RIT played under the East Division.
In 1980, the RIT men’s hockey program made
a giant step forward by moving to the Division
II level of play. This meant playing a challenging
25-game schedule featuring 16 matches against
Division II teams. RIT also began playing in the
New York State College Hockey League (NYSCHL),
comprised solely of Division II schools. The league
folded in 1985-86.
The 1982-83 season marked a milestone in
the program, as the Tigers won their first NCAA
Championship in Division II. In the two-game
quarterfinal series, RIT defeated Mankato State
and went on to beat Lowell 4-1 in the semifinals,
advancing them to the championship game, where
they defeated Bemidji State, 4-2.
The next year RIT moved to the Division III
level. The Tigers repeated again as champions in
1984-85, this time at the Division III level, defeating
Bemidji State once again, by a score of 5-1.
In 1988-89 the ECAC Division III formed two
more divisions, adding a North and a South Division. With this change, RIT moved to the ECAC
West and continued its status as a powerhouse in
that division, winning seven conference titles in 17
seasons, including four straight, from 1998 to 2002.
The Tigers have made multiple trips to the big
show—14, in fact. In 1988-89, RIT tied the first
game in the two-game series against WisconsinStevens Point, but ended its postseason play in the
second game of the series, losing 3-2. In 1995-96,
RIT made it to the championship game, losing 3-2
to Middlebury. In 2000-01, the team was ranked
No. 1 in the nation the entire season and undefeated
until losing the championship contest to SUNY
Plattsburgh.
Several RIT players have earned national recognition for their play on the ice, as All-Conference,
or All-Americans. In 1997, Steve Toll was named
the Division III National Player of the Year. In 2001,
Jerry Galway also earned that hallowed honor.
On Dec. 15, 2004, RIT President Albert Simone
and Director of Athletics Lou Spiotti annouced that
the Tigers would be moving to the Division I level
starting with the 2005-06 season. RIT became a
full-fledged member of the Atlantic Hockey
Association in 2006-07.
In 2006-07, RIT’s second year as a Division I
program and first as a member of Atlantic Hockey,
the Tigers won the conference’s regular season title.
They finished the season with a 20-7-1 conference mark and won 21 games overall. The 21 wins
against Division I competition were an improvement of 17 over its first season.
On March 7-8, 2008, the Tigers played their first
postseason games as a Division I program, defeating Holy Cross both nights in overtime by scores of
5-4 in the Atlantic Hockey Association quarterfinals. That season, Simon Lambert made history by
becoming RIT’s first finalist for the Hobey Baker
Award, Division I college hockey’s most prestigious
individual honor.
In 2008-09, RIT set a Division I school record
by winning 23 games, and was victorious in 11
straight contests. The Tigers advanced to the AHA
semifinals and were second nationally in goals per
game (3.89).
In 2009-10, the Tigers made history by not only
winning their first AHA Championship, but then
shocking the nation by upsetting No. 2 Denver
and No. 12 New Hampshire to win the NCAA East
Regional and advancing to the Frozen Four in just
its fifth season as a Division I squad. Head Coach
Wayne Wilson was named winner of the Spencer
Penrose Award as the National Coach of the Year.
Wilson, who also won the Edward JeremiahAward
as Division III Coach of the Year in 2001, became
the first coach to earn the national coach of the year
honor at both levels.
RIT was the only team in Division I to win both
its conference regular season and conference championships. At the Frozen Four in Detroit, Mich.,
RIT played in front of a school-record 34,954 fans.
The Tigers were nationally ranked for the first time
as a Division I program, and finished the season
No. 10 in the USA Today/USA Hockey Magazine
national poll, after climbing as high as ninth.
RIT set school records with 28 wins, and a 12game winning streak.
Last season, the Tigers enjoyed another tremendous season, winning the AHA regular season title
for the fourth time in five years, and were one goal
shy of their second consecutive trip to the NCAA
Tournament. Associate Head Coach Brian Hills
won the Terry Flanagan Award as the nation’s top
assistant coach.
RIT has proven to be a top team at the Division
I level, just as it was at the Division II and III levels.
What history will the Tigers make in 2011-12?

Frank Ritter Ice Arena
Frank Ritter Ice Arena is home to the Rochester Institute of Technology men’s
and women’s hockey teams, as well as the Genesee Figure Skating Club. The
arena has hosted five NCAA Championships, most recently the women’s Division III final in 2010-11. In 2008, the arena celebrated its 40th anniversary.
Formerly known as Shumway Arena, the facility has undergone several
renovations. A new sound system, lights, ceiling, and dasher boards have been
added to help make Ritter Arena one of the best facilities in the Atlantic Hockey
Association. In the last four years, both team locker rooms were renovated, a
visitor’s locker room was added, and the compressors were replaced. In 2008,
a state-of-the-art television studio was built to accommodate live hockey
broadcasts on Time Warner Cable Sports. RIT is one of a handful of Division I
programs that can broadcast games in high definition.
In 2011, a $3.5 million project was completed to expand the current men’s
and women’s hockey locker rooms, with coaching offices and video and training
rooms to be added in the lower level of the arena.
E Game Night Atmosphere
With its intimate capacity of 2,100 (1,600 sitting, 500 standing), fans are right
on top of the action. With the “Corner Crew” leading the way, fans at Ritter
Arena cheer loudly and often. The crowds are among the most boisterous and
loudest in Division I, and give the Tigers a distinct home-ice advantage. There
is a plethora of banners celebrating RIT hockey’s several conference and NCAA
championships. In addition, there are several different promotions and special
events between periods, making Ritter Arena the place to be on campus during
the winter months.
E History
The arena is named after one of Rochester’s most distinguished citizens. Frank
Ritter was a founder of Rochester Athenaeum and Mechanics Institute (now
RIT). He served on the Board of Trustees from 1885 to 1903, and was founder
of Ritter Company, later a part of Sybron Co. The arena was dedicated in his
honor in 1968.
E Media and Special Guests
Overlooking the south end is the John D. Pike Press Box, dedicated on Nov. 18,
1985. The facility is a gift of the John D. Pike Construction Co. and is named in
honor of the company’s founder. The press box has areas for media and special
guests of the university.
E Special Activities
Numerous other activities have taken advantage of the arena’s facilities. Some of
these include:
Genesee Figure Skating Club Invitational
Rochester Youth Hockey practice sessions
Monroe County Hockey League playoffs
McQuaid Jesuit High School Tournament
Empire State Games Championships
The arena also hosts the Tiger Hockey School, and the Genesee Figure
Skating Club has conducted its 49th Annual Skating Academy. Learn-to-Skate
classes and public skating are also offered throughout the year.

COACH SAID NEVER
TAKE A SHIFT OFF.
WE DIDN’T ASK
ANY QUESTIONS.
From the opening faceoff to the final horn, RIT Tigers are bred to give their all. On every
shift. No exceptions. “Build a new arena? No problem,” we said. Yet while our men’s and
women’s teams keep winning conference championships, we’re having trouble with
other fundamentals. Like say, construction for new seats, rows, aisles, sightlines, private
boxes, and locker rooms for RIT’s proposed state-of-the-art ice arena. You could say our
tenacity deserves some applause. But what we really need is a hand. We’ll make the goal
if you assist. Visit RIT’s Power Play campaign at rit.edu/powerplay.
