Friday morning wasn’t great for the Scarlet Knights.
Friday night was a lot better.
Rutgers Wrestling closed out day two at the 2022 NCAA Championships Friday night with two wrestlers earning All-American honors for the 6th straight time at the national tournament as Sebastian Rivera (141lbs) and Greg Bulsak (197lbs) cemented their place in Rutgers Wrestling history.
No. 3 Rivera fell in his championship quarterfinal bout, but rebounded strongly in the consolation bracket, winning two matches in the evening session to guarantee at least a top-six finish.
Bulsak reeled off three streak consolation round victories before falling in the fifth round and he’ll wrestle for 7th place Saturday morning.
