NEWARK, NJ | Rutgers University-Newark took the court for the first time in a week tonight when they hosted Kean University in New Jersey Athletic Conference (NJAC) action.

Saniyiah Richardson tallied a team-high 13 digs while Meredith Moore secured the lone block for the Scarlet Raiders on the night.
