B1G Wrestling Championships / Rutgers Hosting Question

[IsItLuck]

I was thinking about this today...should the B1G wrestling championship come to Rutgers in the near future, do you think the RAC is adequate to have the amount of mats/people?

If not, where would Rutgers host the event? The Rock? MSG?

Thoughts?

The Rock, maybe sooner than we think.

What is the Rock?

What is the Rock?

Prudential Center in Newark

The Rock, maybe sooner than we think.

It would be epic to have the tournament in NJ within the next 2 years.

It would be great to host at The RAC, but we could probably only fit 3 mats without the temporary floor seats and risers on the ends, so I'm not sure that it's big enough. Don't they usually have 4 mats? Has Northwestern ever hosted it on campus, as Welsh is similar in size and seating capacity?

Go on...

They have used 4 mats. It has been held at Welsh but that was in 2011 prior to adding three schools. Minnesota and Penn State are the next two schools on the rotation. I am not sure when they will slide Maryland, Nebraska and Rutgers in.

Is PSU in 2020 a definite?

We hosted the EIWA at the RAC just prior to our B1G move using 3 mats I believe. I thought it was tight but went well. B1G tourney would be tough at RAC so going to the ROCK would be excellent.

Nothing been announced that I know of. I was basing that off the rotation they had been using.
