'Laser-beam focused' Nick Suriano ready for Big Ten Championships, Rutgers' Scott Goodale says

Nick Suriano is ready to go.

Rutgers coach Scott Goodale said the nation's top-ranked 125-pounder, who has not wrestled since Feb. 2 due to illness, is 100 percent and will have no issues competing in this weekend's Big Ten Championships at Michigan State.

"He's preparing, he's had a couple really good days of training this week," Goodale said. "He looks great. It was good to get him back on the mat, get the rust out. He's been training the last couple of weeks, so he's just locking in now."

Suriano, who was not available for comment Tuesday, missed Rutgers' final four dual meets of the regular season.
