History made for Robert Morris

PITTSBURGH – Robert Morris earned its first national ranking in program history on Monday afternoon, as the Colonials slot in as the 10th team in the USCHO.com poll.

Complete Poll
Robert Morris (12-3-1, 6-1-1 CHA) spent the past four weeks in the receiving-votes section of the rankings, getting as many as 10 votes in the Nov. 11 release of the poll. The Colonials received the most votes for a non-top 10 team during the past two weeks.

With a win last Saturday at Syracuse, RMU set a program record for victories during the team's first 16 games. The 12 wins top the previous mark of 11 victories, set by the 2011-12 Colonials. In that season, head coach Paul Colontino guided RMU to an 11-3-2 record through its first 16 contests and capped off the campaign by winning the program's first CHA championship.

Robert Morris replaced previous No. 10 Mercyhurst in the polls.
