The Rutgers men’s basketball team entered this week with a major opportunity and needing to prove they were capable of making significant progress this season. After beating Wisconsin on Wednesday night, in-state rival Seton Hall came to the RAC ranked and looking to continue its recent domination of Rutgers in this series, having won five of the last six. Instead, the Scarlet Knights turned in their most impressive performance of the season. They came out firing on all cylinders and knocked Seton Hall on their heels early, never recovering and Rutgers picked up its best win of the season by the final score of 68-48
You couldn’t have asked for a better start to this game from Rutgers, who came out on a mission.
