The Lady Scarlet Knights may have been playing on the home turf of the Michigan State Spartans, but that didn’t stop them from continuing a post-season streak that’s been pretty amazing:
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Rutgers played so well on the road, the Scarlet Knights probably won’t mind doing it again.
Kia Vaughn had 12 of her 16 points in the first half to help fourth-seeded Rutgers beat Michigan State 70-57 on its home court Tuesday night in the second round of the Greensboro Regional.
Just as when I was in college, the Rutgers women are the only hope the Scarlet Knights have in basketball this postseason. Unfortunately, their next challenge will be quite formidable:
The Scarlet Knights (24-8) play the top-seeded Duke Blue Devils (32-1) Saturday in Greensboro, N.C. — about 50 miles from their campus.
Go Rutgers ! Beat Duke !
