The Rutgers women’s basketball team returned to the court on Friday night for its Big Ten opener against Northwestern. After leading by 11 points at the half and by as much as 16 in the third quarter, the Scarlet Knights trailed 41-40 with one minute and twenty seconds left in the game. That’s when Victoria Harris saved the day, stealing it away from the Wildcat and sealing the victory from the free throw line, where she made both shots after being fouled.
Charise Wilson iced it with two of her own, as Rutgers made 5 of 6 from the charity stripe in the final minute to win 45-41.
