The 1907–08 RPI men's ice hockey season was the 5th season of play for the program.

Season[edit]

For their fifth season Rensselaer was able to play one of the Intercollegiate Hockey Association member teams for the first time when they played Dartmouth. RPI performed admirably, finishing with a tie. In the final game of their season RPI decimated local rival Union 14–2 in the last meeting between the two for over 15 years.[1]

Note: Rensselaer's athletic teams were unofficially known as 'Cherry and White' until 1921 when the Engineers moniker debuted for the men's basketball team.[2]
