It's that time of the year again - Rutgers vs. Rider. A match for pride and bragging rights. Rutgers has been dominant over the last decade against Rider, but Rider is coming into tonight with one of their best lineups in recent time.

Can Rutgers wrestling keep their winning streak alive? Or will Rider finally live up to the all of the chirping they have been doing for the last several years?

Follow along for live updates from the dual, as first whistle is just five minutes away!
 
If Rider doesn't win tonight, they won't for a while since they lose Fluri, Dellavecchia, and Sherry after this season.
 
ESPN cut away during the Lehighs. Who’s wrestling 165 today?
 
Okay, it's showtime!

Kicking things off at 125 lbs, with Nic Aguilar taking on Jonathon Tropea
 
Some how Tropea escapes that period with only one stall warning. He still leads 4-1, after riding Aguilar out the rest of the period.
 
He stood and didnt move for 5 seconds with Aguilar's leg in the air...no count
 
Tropea backed out of bounds and hit again for stalling. Now 5-2, Tropea
 
Aguilar with a single leg of his own for a takedown. Tropea quickly escapes before the period expires. 6-4, Tropea, with Aguilar going on bottom to start the third.
 
Tropea is gassed. This blood time is annoying. What’s the NCAA limit?
 
Tropea bringing it to Aguilar early and then stalling even with all the blood time. Should've been banged for stalling more as he continues to just back up and be shot out. Nice to see Aguilar finally finish a TD.
 
Aguilar out with a little over a minute left in the match. 6-5 in favor or Tropea
 
Aguilar with the go ahead takedown, and Tropea quickly escaping to tie things at 7-7.
 
Tropea hit with another stall warning on the edge, and that gives Aguilar a one point lead. However, Tropea does have a RT point looming.
 
These refs suck. Tropea should've been stalled out already. Great fight by Aguilar getting those takedowns. Tropea grabbed headgear several times and no calls until the last time.

Aguilar gets another takedown with 10 seconds left in the match. Tropea gets hit for a point for grabbing the head gear of Aguilar off the restart. Great bounce-back win for Aguilar.

3-0 Rutgers

WTF Aguilar why did you have to do that after the match.
 
Wright gets to a lefty single, but Alvarez scrambling to prevent Wright from a score. The ref calls a stallmate after about 30 seconds of holding ankles
 
Alvarez scrambles off of a Wright single leg attempt to find a takedown. Alvarez out in front 2-0 with a minute left in the first period.
