This win sets up a potential LL Championship type of game between Hobart and #19 RPI (5-0, 1-0) this Saturday in Troy, NY. The Engineers had a bye week after narrowly beating Ithaca (4-2, 1-1) in Week 6. RPI has been one of Hobart's toughest conference foes to date, as they've split the series, 4-4, so far this decade.
Last season the Statesmen were the lone loss for the Engineers in LL play, beating them soundly, 30-0. RPI settled in on SO QB George Marinopoulous after that game and have gone 10-0 in the regular season since.
I'll have more on this match up along with the usual ITH content, a little later this week.
Thanks for reading and go 'Bart!
