Coming off of a 2010 Championship and one of the best seasons in program history, the Dolphins struggled to start 2011. CSI began with a 1-6 record before spurting eight consecutive wins to follow. From there, the Dolphins had a bumpy road but prevailed in the end with a 20-15 record to finish the regular season.
The Dolphins defeated the beavers in all three meetings this season 3-1 and 6-2 in conference with a lop-sided 20-4 victory in the third non-conference matchup.
