MEN’S CROSS COUNTRY
On Sunday the harriers competed in the B1G Championships at Minnesota. There they finished eleventh in a field of twelve, ahead of Iowa. The top RU entrant was Conor Murphy who finished 58th. Wisconsin won the event, followed by Michigan State and Indiana. Next up in two weeks – the District II Championships.

MEN’S SOCCER
Congratulations to the men’s soccer team on getting their first victory on Saturday, a 3-2 road OOC win against Bradley. Prior to that, they suffered a 1-0 home loss on Tuesday against Columbia. Their final regular season record is 0-6-2 in conference and 1-13-2 overall. Next up is the nine-team B1G tournament, which opens with a winnable 8-9 matchup against Michigan on Saturday. Win that, and who knows?

WOMEN’S CROSS COUNTRY
The women also competed in the B1G Championships on Sunday, finishing 14th. The leading RU runner was Alexandra Juzwiak who finished 95th. Of the top seven RU runners (which are the only ones who are scored) four are freshmen. Next up in two weeks is the NCAA Mid-Atlantic Regional.

WOMEN’S FIELD HOCKEY
On Sunday the women played their regular season finale, a 4-2 loss at #3 Maryland. The field hockey final regular season record stands at 2-6 in conference and 9-8 overall. Next up is a rematch with Maryland on Thursday in the first round of the B1G tournament.

WOMEN’S ROWING
The rowing team were scheduled to participate in the Princeton Chase Regatta on Sunday. Nothing on it on scarletknights.com, but according to the official race results, the Knights entered two teams in the eight-person event, with the A team finishing 41st and the B team finishing 54th in a field of 59. They were also scheduled to participate in an event on Saturday but I haven’t found anything on that. Next up (as least according to the schedule) is the Rutgers Classic on Sunday, where they will have the all-important home river advantage!

WOMEN’S SOCCER
Talk about peaking at the right time! On Sunday, the Knights broke a five match winless streak in the best way possible – by upsetting host team #21 Penn State 2-0 in the first round of the B1G tournament. Their overall record now stands at 10-3-6. Prior to that, the Knights concluded their regular season with a 2-1 loss at Wisconsin. Their B1G regular season final record is 4-2-5. Next up – the semis on Friday against third seeded Northwestern, televised on BTN!

WOMEN’S SWIMMING AND DIVING
Busy weekend in the Midwest for the aquatics. On Friday they participated in a quadrangular meet at Notre Dame. Unfortunately they dropped all three matches: 165-132 to Miami FL, 221-78 to ND, and 197-102 to Purdue. Then on Saturday they trekked to Northwestern for a triangular meet, dropping 168-132 to the host school and 187-113 to Illinois. The outstanding RU performer was diver Addison Walkowiak, who won the 1 meter dive on both days. RU returns home next weekend to host Georgetown, Seton Hall, and Villanova.

WOMEN’S VOLLEYBALL
Another difficult weekend against top-flight opponents on the road. Straight set losses to #3 Minnesota and #4 Wisconsin, as they remain winless in conference. They return home to face Iowa and Nebraska next weekend.
