As part of their lead gift to the R B1G Build campaign, the donation from John and Amy Towers will be dedicated to upgrading the practice facilities for football.
“We are very grateful to the Towers family for their tremendous support of Rutgers Athletics and our football program,” said Director of Athletics Pat Hobbs. “Their gift will dramatically improve the quality of our practice facility. It will also be a great asset as we recruit the nation’s best and continue to make strides towards building Rutgers into a championship contender in the Big Ten.”
Upon his arrival last winter, head coach Chris Ash stated the need to bring facilities up to Big Ten standards.
