We are the champions
RIT’s first NCAA championship win in 1982-1983
RIT’s first NCAA championship win in 1982-1983 in Division II marked a key moment in the ice hockey program. (The Tigers repeated as NCAA champions in 1984-1985, this time at the Division III level.) RIT is celebrating the 50th year of intercollegiate hockey during the 2011-2012 season. To highlight this anniversary, RIT Archives will be creating an exhibit and hosting a special event in the RIT Museum at The Wallace Center during Brick City Homecoming & Family Weekend. Using historical photographs and memorabilia taken from the collection, as well as items borrowed from former team members or anyone who has saved hockey-related materials, the exhibit will look at the growth of this sport at RIT. If you have items to loan or donate, contact Becky Simmons, RIT archivist, at raswml@rit.edu.
