After making steady progress in each of its first three seasons in the Big Ten, Rutgers wrestling could be on the cusp of an explosion in 2017-18.

Coming off two straight Top 20 finishes at the NCAA Championships, Rutgers is expected to add national title contender Nick Suriano after the Big Ten approved his waiver for immediate eligibility as an in-conference transfer from Penn State, as first reported by NJ Advance Media.
