How did the Rutgers Olympic sports do this week?

The second week of October was full of mixed results for Rutgers athletics.

For Rutgers Athletics, this past week included wins and highlight reel plays. That isn’t a bad combination smack dab in the middle of Big Ten action.

While football had the week off, every other fall sport was still in action. Volleyball continued to struggle, but men’s and women’s soccer were both able to record a win.

Heading into mid-October, men’s soccer is sixth in the Big Ten, but they only trail fifth-place Penn State by one game. However, for women’s soccer, they are still in the top ten nationally. If the fall season were to end today, they would be the third-best team in the Big Ten.

Field hockey continued to be a bright spot, and Sophia Howard made her case for save of the year. As October marches on, however, wins are at a premium with playoffs on the horizon. For the Scarlet Knights, it was another productive week for fall athletics.
