History

Emblem-important
 This section is incomplete and may require expansion or cleanup. Please help to improve the article, or discuss the issue on the talk page.

In the fall of 1957, RIT student Jack Trickey founded the Monroe County Amateur Hockey (MCAHA) Association. A group of RIT students made up the majority of one of the teams. In 1958, the RIT Hockey Club was founded, and competed in the MCAHA until the league folded in 1960. The RIT hockey team continued to play against junior varsity and club teams. The RIT student council and athletic committee recommended that hockey be added to the athletic program, and men's hockey later became a varsity sport.[1] The team competed at the Division II and III level for several years before moving up to Division I in 2006.
