Game preview

Here we go …. I think. Although it is the inaugural day of college basketball for men and women, cancellations and postponements have occurred throughout the sport. This includes Rutgers women’s basketball, whose season opening date has been pushed back to Friday earlier today. This is our new reality for the season and as our Dave White pointed out, try and enjoy the ride, despite everything being unpredictable.

For tonight’s match, Rutgers needs to impose his will, play with a goal on both ends of the ground and build a comfortable progression so that freshmen can rest for much of the second half and the rookies get some much-needed work.

The Scarlet Knights are set to play three times this week in five days, so they have to keep their legs refreshed and agile enough to play well on Sunday against Hofstra.

Enjoy the game and if you don’t watch it on BTN Plus I highly recommend you to listen Jerry Recco and Joe Boylan on Radio Here.
