These back-to-back championship teams featured some of the most talented players of the era and played a key role in shaping the early legacy of Syracuse Men’s Hockey.
The 1976–1977 team posted a 15–3 record while averaging an impressive 10 goals per game, capturing the final FLCHL championship before the league dissolved.
The following season, Syracuse helped establish the New York State Collegiate Club Hockey Association (NYCCHA) and went on to win its inaugural championship in 1977–1978.
