Rutgers Holds On To Beat Penn State 70-68 For 1st B1G Road Win In Program History

Finally! Nothing comes easy for the Rutgers men’s basketball team and the road in conference play has been a house of horrors for 2+ years. After losing their first 23 road games in B1G play, Rutgers responded after their worst loss of the season Tuesday against Iowa with their first victory ever away from the RAC in conference play.

Head coach Steve Pikiell challenged his team with some strong words about their toughness and maturity ahead of today’s game. After several close losses, Rutgers bottomed out in their last outing and how they would respond was anyone’s guess.
