Rutgers wrestling is back at the Jersey Mike's Arena for some more Big Ten action! The Scarlet Knights are set to take on the Illinois Fighting Illini in just a few minutes. TKR is here to give you match-by-match updates once things get under way.

For those of you did not see it earlier, Jackson Turley announced he will be having season ending surgery. Meaning, Connor O'neill will start at 174-lbs for Rutgers tonight, and most likely, for the rest of the season. Prior to the Turley announcement, I had Rutgers winning this one 19 - 13, but with Turley out, this will make things a bit tougher for Rutgers.

First whistle is coming shortly, so stay tuned for TKR's live updates. For those of you at home, you can watch the dual on BTN+

What is Turley’s injury?
 
Good 1st half showing for RU...Need our Studs to be studs at 184 and 197
I never liked seeing RU wrestle a Brunagel from Illinois (Spelling?). They always seemed like decent wrestlers.

Kanniard gets a 7-4 win. He seemed to be running out of gas, but he was able to hang on.

I just feel like Kanniard doesn’t wrestle with a high IQ. Seems to do less then smart things at certain times like bad shots. Gutsy win and all the credit but he has the potential to be more dominant in a match like that.
 
Period ends with Braunagel on top. He leads Clark 2 - 0.

Braunagel chooses neutral to start the second
 
Braunagel able to score with Clark fighting like hell to avoid the takedown. Braunagel then cuts Clark to make it 4-1
 
Braunagel gets another takedown before the end of the second, making it 6 - 1.

Clark going on bottom to start the third
 
Braunagel with another takedown, making it 8 - 2. He cuts Clark to make it 8 - 3
 
Braunagel unable to score, but still picks up the 9 - 3 win. Heck of a job by Clark to avoid bonus points.

Rutgers leads 14 - 7
