In demonstrable proof that Rutgers has turned the corner on becoming a major player and program in the Big Ten, the program has met a goal set just over a week ago to raise $81,000 to honor former Scarlet Knight great #81 Marco Battaglia on the day of the dedication of the brand-new Marco Battaglia Practice Complex.
