RIT finished with a 18-15-6 record in 2015-16.
 
Season-ticket holders enjoy great benefits, including 10 percent off hockey merchandise at the SpiRIT store at the Gene Polisseni Center.

In addition, with the purchase of any men's season ticket, fans are eligible to purchase a RIT women's hockey season ticket package for just $20. The RIT women's program begins its fifth season at the Division I level and have won two College Hockey America Championships. The women's squad will play 17 games at the Gene Polisseni Center and one at famed Ritter Arena in 2016-17. Here is the complete 2016-17 RIT women's hockey schedule.
 
On Oct. 15, the RIT men will host University of Connecticut at Blue Cross Arena, the focal point of RIT's Brick City Homecoming and Family Weekend. RIT has drawn a sellout crowd of 10,556 fans for each of the last six Brick City Homecoming and Family Weekend games.
 
This will mark the third straight year that reserved seating is in effect for the Brick City Homecoming game at Blue Cross Arena. All tickets purchased will have a designated section, row, and seat number. Please plan appropriately, because tickets and seat arrangements will not be able to be refunded or changed once purchased. Tickets for that game are on sale at www.rit.edu/brickcity.

Fans will be able to purchase a full season ticket package with all 17 games played at the Gene Polisseni Center. Please note that the Brick City contest vs. University of Connecticut at Blue Cross Arena on Oct. 15 is not included in the season ticket price for the season.
