1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Four different underclassmen had started at shooting guard for the Hoyas during the  previous season, and the lack of a reliable guard had hurt the Hoyas badly – so badly that their 14-year string of consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances had finally come to an end, although they had made a run all the way to the final game of the 1993 National Invitation Tournament. To address the shooting guard issue, Thompson signed George Butler, who transferred from Tyler Junior College in Tyler, Texas, to play his junior year at Georgetown.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
With Butler on the team, Thompson changed Georgetown's offensive strategy from one of feeding the ball to a "big man" at center to an uptempo game by the team's guards, deemphasizing the role of sophomore centers Duane Spencer and Othella Harrington. In the season opener against Maryland, Butler scored 21 points and Harrington had 16 points and 15 rebounds, although Maryland won the game as freshman Terrapins forward Joe Smith debuted with a 26-point game.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Butler played in all 31 games and started 25 of them. He led the team in scoring in three of the first five games and in six games by mid-January 1994, and he scored in double figures 21 times, including a 26-point game against Boston College. For the season, he led the team in three-pointers and free throws and was second in scoring. Harrington, meanwhile, saw his performance decline under the new offensive scheme. Thompson started junior Don Reid at center during the first half of the season, relegating Spencer to the bench and moving Harrington to power forward.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Harrington's reflexes tended to be too slow for the new uptempo offense, and his tendency to put the ball on the floor after receiving an inside pass instead of taking the ball straight to the basket also hindered him. By mid-January 1994, Harrington had led the team in scoring in only one game, and his scoring had dropped by 25 percent from the previous season, despite averaging over 30 minutes per game. However, Thompson then moved Harrington back to center, and his play improved.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
He scored in double figures in 14 of the last 15 games of the season, including a 27-point game against Syracuse, had 17-rebound efforts in two consecutive games, and scored a career-high 31 points at Madison Square Garden against St. John's in an important win in Georgetown's push to return to the NCAA Tournament. He finished as the team leader in scoring and rebounds.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Reid's first two seasons at Georgetown had been unimpressive; he had averaged 1.6 points per game in each of them with limited playing time. Starting at center during the first half of this season while Harrington played power forward, he finally began to excel. He had 11 points and 10 rebounds against Memphis State and a season-high 15 points and 11 rebounds in a game with Villanova. He rebounded in double digits five times, and he averaged 7.7 points and 5.9 rebounds per game for the year.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Senior point guard and second-year team captain Joey Brown played in 30 games and started 29 of them, scoring in double figures 17 times. He had four double-doubles (double figures in scoring and assists), giving him a career total of six, and in the win over Nevada-Las Vegas he became the first Georgetown player to have 1,000 points, 400 rebounds, and 500 assists in his career. He led the team in assists in all but four games and averaged 10.0 points per game.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Senior forward Robert Churchwell scored in double figures 15 times. His best performances were a 24-point game against Nevada-Las Vegas and 19 against Boston College, and he averaged 9.7 points per game.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
The Hoyas received a bye in the first round of the 1994 Big East Tournament, and  defeated Boston College handily in the quarterfinals. Butler scored 24 points in an overtime win over Seton Hall in the semifinals and 18 points against Providence in the final before fouling out with 11:09 left in the game. With him out, the Hoyas had to rely on inexperienced guards for the rest of the game, and Providence took advantage of that to beat Georgetown for the tournament championship.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Georgetown returned to the NCAA Tournament, its 15th appearance in the last 16 seasons, seeded ninth in the Midwest Region. The Hoyas upset No. 8 seed Illinois in the first round, with Butler scoring nine points in the first half and 18 in the second half for a career-high 27 points and Reid putting in a 15-point, seven-rebound effort. Two days later, the Hoyas lost to the region's No. 1 seed, Arkansas, the fourth straight time that Georgetown had exited the NCAA Tournament in the second round.


1993–94 Georgetown Hoyas men's basketball team, Season recap
Georgetown's season opener against Maryland was the first meeting of the teams outside of a tournament since a December 5, 1979, game in which John Thompson and Maryland head coach Lefty Driesell had gotten into a shouting match at midcourt. The incident apparently had soured relations between the schools, which had a lengthy history of regular-season meetings before the 1979 game. The 1993 meeting raised hopes that the teams would resume regular meetings, but they did not schedule one another for a non-tournament regular-season game again until 2015.

1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, Middling Start
The Lakers began the season with four wins against conference opponents but when they hosted the class of the CCHA, Michigan, in early November Lake State suffered its first loss of the year. Worryingly, the next night against Bowling Green also ended in a loss for the Lakers, who had built their success under Jeff Jackson by being neatly unbeatable at home.

1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, Recovery
The Lakers got the first week of February off and when they returned to game action that were already out of the running for the conference championship (with 8 games still to play). One bright spot, however, was that Michigan had been so dominant against the CCHA that the three losses Lake State suffered were mirrored by their competition for the 2nd-seed. The Lakers began their final stretch against Michigan State, who they had to beat if they wanted a top seed, and they blitzed the Spartans with a surprising 11–1 win. LSSU earned three points in the series after tying the second game then captured another three points to pull into a tie for third with Western Michigan.

With the Spartans 2 points ahead with 4 games to play, the Lakers' couldn't have asked for a better schedule than to play Illinois–Chicago and Kent State in consecutive weekends. While the team knew they should beat their weak competition, how they performed was miraculous nonetheless. Up to that point in the season senior starter Blaine Lacher had had a good season but he finally earned his first shutout of the year against UIC. After Lacher allowed only one goal in the rematch the Lakers found themselves in a tie for second with the Broncos after Michigan State's disastrous weekend. Lacher continued his hot streak by shutting out Kent State in consecutive games and after Western Michigan failed to keep pace the Lakers ended the season with a 2nd-place CCHA finish.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, CCHA Tournament
Lake Superior's reward was facing 10th-seed Ohio State in the First Round and bye into the semifinal should they win. The Buckeyes proved they were no match for the Lakers when they failed to score in wither of the two games, allowing Lacher to run his shutout streak almost to 300 minutes, a new program record. The quarterfinal bye allowed the Lakers to rest while MSU got in a dogfight with Miami and when the two met the Spartans couldn't beat Lacher who posted his fifth consecutive shutout and was approaching the all-time NCAA shutout record.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, CCHA Tournament
Lacher and the Lakers faced a tall task in the conference title game against Michigan and at least early on it appeared that they might have a chance for both the title and the record. However, just after his 375th minute of scoreless play, Lacher finally surrendered a goal and the near-miss to the record seemed to deflate the team. Lake Superior could only muster 15 shots against a ferocious Wolverine defense and the Lakers fell 0–3, ending their three-year reign as CCHA Tournament champions.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
Despite catching fire at the end of the season Lake Superior only received the 4th western seed and would have to face Michigan in the Regional Semifinals. That game, however, could only happen if the Lakers could get past Northeastern. The Huskies hadn't played well to end the season but they were still able to put up a fight against Lake Superior, scoring five times and pushing LSSU into their 11th overtime game of the season. Lake Superior had lost as many extra-session games as they had won to that point but they were able to get above .500 and advance to the second round.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
Lake Superior wrapped up their stay in East Lansing against the only CCHA team they hadn't defeated all year. The fifth meeting between the two looked like it was going to go the same way as the first four when Michigan opened the scoring 9 minutes in but Lake State responded by scoring three times in just over three minutes to give themselves a 2-goal edge after the first.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
The Wolverines recovered in the third and methodically took over, firing 20 shots at Lacher and scoring three times to retake the lead but a goal by Kurt Miller, with just 3 seconds left in the second period, tied the score at 4-all. The Laker goal seemed to sap the energy from the Wolverines and the two teams played the final frame a bit more evenly. Neither was able to score and the two teams headed into overtime. Both teams appeared nervous at the start with only one shot being recorded in the first two and a half minutes, but when Rob Valicevic got the first Laker shot of the session it ended up in the back of the net and the Lakers had landed their white whale.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
The Lakers headed to Saint Paul for a meeting with Harvard. Lake State's third game of the tournament ended in much the same manner as the first two with overtime being needed but team captain Clayton Beddoes' goal just past the 4-minute mark sent Lake Superior to its third consecutive championship game. The three nail-biting finishes had left their mark on the team with Jeff Jackson downing Tums and Blaine Lacher finding hair coming off in his mask.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
Their final game came against the top eastern seed, Boston University, and they were expecting to weather a storm from the favored Terriers who had outscored opponents by more than 40 goals in the first period alone that season. Instead, it was the Lakers who got off to a hot start with one goal in the first period to BU's none.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, NCAA Tournament
The score might have been a surprise but what was truly shocking was how poorly Boston University had played; the Terriers had only been able to muster 2 shots on goal in the first 20 minutes, and that didn't bode well for their chances. When Kurt Miller put the Lakers' up 3–0 the shot chart read 21–3 in the Lakers favor. BU did score in the second period but by then the route was on and Lake Superior ended up scoring nine goals from seven different players. The 9–1 win was the largest margin of victory and most goals scored by one team since 1961. More importantly was the fact that Lake Superior finally got a national championship without a cloud of controversy hanging over the victory.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, Awards and Honors
Sean Tallaire received the tournament MOP on the back of his two goals but the award could have gone to any number of Laker players with their dominating performance. Tallaire was joined by Blaine Lacher, Keith Aldridge, Steve Barnes and Clayton Beddoes on the All-Tournament team, tying the record for the most players by one team in a season. Blaine Lacher finished with a program-record 1.98 goals against average and 6 shutouts on the season (still program bests as of 2019) but his heroics went unrecognized by award voters as only Beddoes made the AHCA West Second-Team. Even in their conference the Lakers could only manage two All-CCHA Second Team nods (garnered by Beddoes and Aldridge) but in the end the national championship made up for any slights.


1993–94 Lake Superior State Lakers men's ice hockey season, Season, Awards and Honors
The 1993–94 Lakers became only the second national champion to play more road games than home games during the season (1977–78 Boston University).

As this was being formulated, sports sponsorship was becoming more prevalent and as a result John Player and Sons, a division of Imperial Tobacco Company, became sponsors, and the competition never became widely known as the "League Cup" The competition ran from 1971-72 until 1995-96 and was initially intended for the professional clubs plus the two amateur BARLA National Cup finalists. In later seasons the entries were expanded to take in other amateur and French teams.
