Rutgers flipped brackets upside down on Friday when it upset Clemson 60–56 to win its first NCAA men's basketball tournament game in 38 years.
The Scarlet Knights, who hadn't made a March Madness appearance since 1991, defeated the seventh-seeded Tigers as a 10th seed to move on to the Round of 32 in a thriller.
Four Rutgers players scored double digits in the long-awaited win. Senior Jacob Young, senior Geo Baker and junior Caleb McConnell all had 13 points in the win. Guard Ron Harper Jr. contributed 10 points despite only shooting three-for-14 from the field.
