Rutgers' season ends with 11 straight losses after woeful shooting start in Big Ten Tournament

The longest losing streak in Rutgers women's basketball history is going to carry into next season.

No. 14 seed Rutgers suffered its 11th straight loss Wednesday afternoon and was knocked out of the Big Ten Tournament by No. 11 Wisconsin, which prevailed 61-55 in the rubber match between the two teams in the first round at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.

Since the program started in 1974-75, Rutgers has had 30 full seasons with 11 or fewer losses.

"I'm glad to get an opportunity to play," coach C. Vivian Stringer said before the tournament.
