Hall of Fame
A team of destiny from the first puck drop of the year, the 1991-92 edition of Plattsburgh State men’s ice hockey captured the NCAA Division III national championship after going 32-2-2 overall and 13-0-1 in SUNYAC play.Â
Led by third-year head coach Bob Emery, the Cardinals started the season 16-0-1. Suffering just one loss to a Division III opponent all year, the Cardinals breezed through SUNYAC competition before winning the SUNYAC title.Â
After capturing the ECAC title, Plattsburgh State then swept Elmira in an NCAA Tournament quarterfinal series before topping Wisconsin-Superior in the national semifinals. In front of a raucous crowd at the Ronald B. Stafford Ice Arena, the Cardinals defeated Wisconsin-Stevens Point, 7-3, in the national championship game.
