Northwestern baseball ends season with series win against Rutgers

The Wildcats took two of three from the Scarlet Knights to close season on high note.

For all the struggles Northwestern baseball has gone through this season — particularly in Big Ten play — the Wildcats wrapped up their 2016 season with series wins in each of their last two conference sets, sandwiching a dreadful four-game sweep at the hands of the California Golden Bears.

This weekend, Northwestern went to New Jersey and took two of three from Rutgers, as the Scarlet Knights saw their slim Big Ten Tournament hopes dashed with a 5-1 loss on Thursday afternoon.
