Dates To Remember |
* 1968-69: A small group of Stony Brook students begin to play pick-up hockey together on a regular basis. They give thought to creating a team, a project spearheaded by Scott Karson ('72). * 1969-70: The Stony Brook Patriots Ice Hockey team is founded by Scott Karson. They join the Metropolitan Intercollegiate Hockey League. Teams in the league at that time included Adelphi, SUNY Farmingdale, Nassau CC, Queens College, St. Francis, Bridgeport, CCNY, Columbia, Fairfield, Iona, and Manhattan College. Stony Brook played their home games at the former Long Island Arena in Commack, where a shopping center now stands. * 1971-72: Team disbands midway through the season due to controversy and internal conflict. * 1974-75: Stony Brook Hockey returns. The Patriots join the Long Island Collegiate Hockey Association (LICHA) and win the LICHA Championship. This is their only season in the LICHA. * 1975-76: Stony Brook leaves the LICHA and joins the Metropolitan Collegiate Hockey Conference (MCHC). * 1982-83: Stony Brook plays its most winning season ever (in terms of win %), going 15-2-2. They lost in the Semi-Final Round of the Playoffs. * 1999-2000: Stony Brook makes their mark on the national scene by earning sanction from the American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA). This would allow Stony Brook to compete in a greater number of games over a greater geographical area. Stony Brook was also invited to the Division II National Tournament by the ACHA, where they received a rank of ninth overall among all ACHA Division II teams nationwide. The 1999-2000 season also yielded Stony Brook's first league championship since the LICHA Championship 25 years earlier. Stony Brook defeated New York University on home ice to win the Metropolitan Collegiate Hockey Conference Championship. * 2000-01: Stony Brook moves from the MCHC to the more competitive Super East Collegiate Hockey League (SECHL). They return to the ACHA Division II National Tournament and receive a rank of seventh overall among all ACHA Division II teams nationwide. |
