"I think we played well as a team today, did what we needed to, and now we have some momentum heading into the stretch run. Let's hope we can keep it going."
 
Rutgers-Newark moves to 1-1 in the GNAC and 4-6 overall. The Scarlet Raiders will look to make it four-straight wins next Saturday when they head to New Haven, Conn. to take on conference foe Albertus Magnus College.
