It was sometime last season that the thought of having to write about Geo Baker’s senior night crept into my mind. I quickly realized it was something I dreaded. For as much as he has meant to this program, the idea of having to properly capture the emotions of the moment in which he would last play at the RAC seemed daunting. And the whole idea of it being his last game at the RAC was not something I really wanted to come to grips with.
Well, that moment arrived on Wednesday night....maybe. The strangeness of living through a global pandemic has been highlighted through sports and senior night for Rutgers basketball is just another example.
