RPI's football program punched its ticket back to the NCAA playoffs after defeating Ithaca, according to Yahoo Sports. The win broke a four-game losing streak for the Engineers and marked their first postseason appearance since 2021.
The victory sets up a high stakes matchup next Saturday in Troy, where RPI will face Union for the Dutchman Shoes Trophy. A win in that rivalry game would allow RPI to claim the league title outright, according to Yahoo Sports.
The turnaround caps a notable stretch for the team, which rebounded from its recent slide to secure a spot in the national playoff field.
