No Jeremy or Powell in depth preview yet so here is my superficially light rundown of Rutgers.

Faced Scarlet Knights  twice in last two years and split home and away games with home team winning both... 14-10 loss at Rutgers in 18" with R attackman Jules Henisburg scoring 6 goals. Refhuss led Cuse with  two goals in losing cause . ...Cuse won at Dome in 2019 by score 18-14 with their R attackman Charmbildes scoring  6 goals  and fellow attackman Mullins having 6 assists .Jamie Trimboli led Cuse comeback from large early deficit with 4 goals.  Both games were decide in the fourth quarter.

Rutgers entire attack returns and it is their strength with Charamlides, Mullins and Gallagher. They had seven goals and 11 assists in a 16-11 loss to Princeton this week. David Sprock has blossomed as their lead mid with just a sprinkling from other mids.

Their defense is considered neither a strength or weakness.  Bullet is their #1 close defender.  Goalie Edelman graduated and that position is now mannned by Cleveland St transfer Steven Russo who is competent at 50%.

Faceoffs has been an issue as they are at 33%. Should be big advantage here.

The only common opponent has been Army who beat them soundly.

Rutgers at Ridley took Loyola down to the wire losing 11-10 despite losing 23 of 24 faceoffs.

Weather Saturday is expected to be dry and in the low 50's. Syracuse is a draw, likely to have a large crowd as 2018 attendance at Rutgers  for Syracuse game was over five thousand .
