I hope they bring this effort back to the RAC for the last home match against Northwestern. That was some tough, gritty, blooding noses wrestling from our full line up. There was no backing down from anyone. We wrestled pissed off and let them watch the clock.

Quite the 180 from Friday where it looked like the team gave up.
 
Just thankful RU kept their streak of winning seasons alive!!!! Great Job!!!!
 
Very good RU vs Rider match tonight. Very good dual. I think the difference IMO is RU wrestles BIG and that experience ultimately showed up in matches tonight. Rider is a very good program.

RU wrestled hard for every second of every period which allowed them to get numerous takedowns in the last few seconds which has been a complete reverse of fortune from the last few weeks.

They were the better conditioned team as well.

One thing is Donner wrestles very hard. In some matches he’s just doesn’t have the talent to win but he gives his all every match from what I have seen so he never seems to lose for lack of effort
