Nov 06 2052: Another Classic - by BMacG on July 9th, 2026

Union traveled to RIT for the 22nd edition of what must be becoming one of the oldest continuous rivalry games in Hardwood, and pulled off an incredible come from behind victory.

RIT started on fire, putting up 4 points in the first minute, and not allowing Union to score until 2:10 into the game, and they carried this to a 48-36 halftime lead.

The 2nd half started much the same, with RIT still leading 62-55 with 10 minutes left; and that's when Union went Super Saiyan - RIT didn't score a point from 28:42 to 34:14, and in the last three minutes Union scored 11 points, while RIT scored only 1, leading to a 72-70 Union victory; the series stands at 13-9 in RITs favor.


Nov 05 2050: 20th Edition - by BMacG on March 17th, 2026

The greatest rivalry series in New York, the Upstate Uproar, sees RIT traveling to Union for the 20th clash between these two teams.

The stakes are real; the winning school gets the power to issue tolls on the entirety of Route 90 in New York, and its currently the only funding mechanism for RIT's quidditch team.

A chaotic series, theres only 4.1 points difference between RIT and Unions average score, but average margin of victory is 17.3 points.

RIT currently leads 12-7, but Union has the better team.

Danny Devito will be providing opening and closing statements to honor the occasion

Oct 17 2046: Local News Interview - by BMacG on July 31st, 2025

Reporter: So, based on your previ-
BmacG: Please get to the point.
R: Oh, okay, uh, why are you here?
B: I spent my childrens college fund starting a failed chain of restaurants staffed entirely by capybara, and I get a large bonus at 500 and 1000 wins. You happy now?
R: What? No, I was ju-
B: Yeah I bet, you sick freak. I'm just on recruting HC Gillis using some AI nonsense to run the team. I told him he can take those pills the normal way and doesn't have to do that but he's a proud man.
R: I don't understan-
B: Enough, this is supposed to be a family friendly program and I won't tolerate this behavior. I'm ending this interview.
