Rutgers comes out of the weekend with 2

important conference victories

October 28, 2019

The Rutgers field hockey team has been finishing this season off with a bang. Last Friday, the No. 18
Scarlet Knights (10-6, 4-3) defeated Michigan, which would be their second-highest ranked win in
Rutgers history. Then on Sunday, the Knights took on Temple and came out with another victory.

Starting off with the game against the Wolverines (13-4, 5-2), which was the program’s first-ever win
over the team, Rutgers took a clear lead and shut out Michigan for the rest of the game. It ended in a
3-0 win for the Knights and had a lot to do with their defense.

This game was like no other this season because Rutgers was able to keep the Wolverines from only
attempting one shot on goal for the whole match. On the other hand, the Knights were able to take
six shots, and each one of them was on goal.
