OT: Fyi..RU wrestling beat Princeton 19 to 18.

Good win?
Any time we beat Princeton or that other school in p.a.. I think it is a good win.
The other more inside wrestling fans will have to weigh in on your ?
From my niave pov I would have thought it shouldn't have been that close but RU seems to be struggling of late?
 
Those that haven’t been to an RU wrestling match yet, you just don’t know what you’re missing. Had to be the Top 3 loudest the RAC has ever been during Ashnault’s domination match & win today with just over 5K in the house. Unreal.

Go RU!

Looks like we have top 5 quality fan support for wrestling. When will we be a top 5 wrestling program?

That's not fair. Its a lot easier to sell tickets than get that good that fast in this league.

However, we've somehow tapped into a local sports strength that we can own. That's what men's soccer used to be and what lax was too but that one is being revived. Same with basketball.

If Rutgets can shine in wrestling, basketball, LAX, fieid hockey, baseball, and women's soccer...we can represent until football gets decent.

You could even lump mens track and field in and swimming. Both are solid programs. I really want a good men's soccer team as well.

Notice anything about the Rutgers line up today?

I am very happy for Anthony. He has been all class throughout his career and it was complete bush league for the Princeton coach to take a shot at him like that. He didn’t do his guy any favors today.

I normally don't like to see athletes taunt or show up the other side, but those PU coaches definitely deserved the 10-figure salute from AA. Well done!

I agree. But he wouldn’t have done that if they didn’t make it an issue.

Respectfully, with regard to track, both the men and women finished last in the conference indoors last year. The men were 10th and the women were last outdoors. Long way to go for both teams in a sport in which NJ high schools export a lot of talent. It looks like recruiting is picking up, but we need a lot more depth. Better facilities would help here too.

If basketball is included, you can add track.
