I know from scheduling out here, that despite the strongest desires of the RD's and RPC members, sometimes two events you want on separate weekends end up on the same one and thus limit options for teams.
The venues are available when they are due to college breaks for RIT and RPI. The last time they had the same break, RPI held theirs the first weekend of break, and RIT did the second weekend.
The hope was that they would do the same thing this year.
