    Team of Distinction
This powerhouse team captured a record fourth-straight Eastern Collegiate Athletic Association South regular-season title with a 15-8-1 overall and 12-2 league record. The team beat Assumption College 8-3 in the ECAC North/South/Central playoffs to advance to sectionals, hosting UMASS Dartmouth before a sold-out crowd at the Saratoga City Rink. The talented senior class compiled a 71-22-3 overall and 48-3-2 league record over four seasons, the most successful four-year class in the program history. Skidmore was unbeaten in league play in 1995 and 1994 and had a 31-game home winning streak.
 
The four-year performance resulted in an invitation to join the powerful ECAC East league for the 1998-1999 season, laying the groundwork for the program's subsequent rise to prominence. Chris McMahon '97 was the 1997 ECAC South Co-Player of the Year and earned ECAC All-Star honors along with Rob Daley '99 and Peter Conlin '98.
