RPI's other men's hockey team, in the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA), doesn't get the attention they deserve, and they have a better record than their ECAC counterparts.
The ACHA Engineers, after absorbing a 5-0 shutout loss to Massachusetts on Saturday night, came right back on Sunday at Houston Field House, and spanked Norwich, 6-1. They've won 15 games on the season, but you'd never read or hear about it, since the ACHA is waaaaay beneath the notice of mainstream sports media. That needs to change.
============================================
Siena was on the road for a Sunday matinee, and had their way with Fairfield, 62-56. At least now the Saints can get some rest before their next game.
=============================================
Sunday's high school scoreboard:
Hockey:
CD Jets 7, Albany Academy 2.
Men's basketball:
Niskayuna 50, Bishop Grimes 48.
Catholic Central 62, Fonda-Fultonville 53.
LaSalle 68, Colonie 60.
South Shore 69, Albany Academy 64.
Newburgh Free Academy 64, Shenendehowa 46.
Xaverian 66, Green Tech 61. The Eagles suffered their first loss this season.
Women's basketball:
Adirondack League:
Corinth 65, Lake George 18.
===========================================
Local college basketball:
St. John Fisher swept Russell Sage in a men & women's doubleheader, blowing out the Gators in the women's game, 98-63, and taking the men's game, 88-80.
===========================================
Troy High's basketball games vs. Niskayuna have been rescheduled for next Monday, Valentine's Day (February 14), with the guys at home vs. the undefeated Silver Warriors, and the women in Niskayuna. That means the men's schedule just got tougher, as they'll start a stretch of playing five games in seven days tomorrow vs. CBA.
