Historical Overview Rutgers vs Saint Peter’s

I know we went down to Peter’s at JC Armory just before Rosario came here. Too bad the powers that be don’t decide to refurbish it. Could hold about 6,000 and with proper design could mimic the Palestra,
 
Yeah but Eddie Jordan was here.

Did Rutgers play the notable St. Peter’s teams with players like Harry Laurie and Elnardo Webster — late 60’s, early 70’s?
 
My strongest memory of St. Peter’s was them beating Niagara at the Jersey City Armory In 1970(?).
My cousin’s future husband was a walk-on player at St. Peter’s. He invited me to the game.
i was astounded by the greatness of Niagara’s Calvin Murphy. He was absolutely brilliant that night.
What a physical specimen and basketball player.

My fondest memory of St. Peters was their 100-71 demolition of Duke in the 1968 NIT. Duke lost 12-10 to NC State in the ACC Tournament and were stuck going to the NIT.

We lost as their beefy Puerto Rican C posted up our Nigerian bean pole at will. The plan was to employ the Armory as a sports arena, but they never even got the brooms out to dust it off.
