Rutgers football hosted Erasmus Hall on Tuesday: ‘Home away from home’

Erasmus Hall visited the Rutgers football program on Tuesday.

PISCATAWAY, N.J. — Erasmus Hall, one of the top football programs in the region, visited Rutgers football on Tuesday.

Known as a pipeline to Rutgers, the Brooklyn-based high school has sent numerous standout players to the school. Included in this list are former wide receivers Aron Cruickshank and Sean Ryan as well as safety Christian Izien.

The program regularly produces Power Five-level recruits and has a strong relationship with Rutgers. That is evidenced by the fact that the current Rutgers roster includes Moses Walker, a former four-star recruit, and standout defensive back Kessawn Abraham.

The Dutchmen are a powerhouse program, finishing last season 10-2 and on a 10-game winning streak.

This made Tuesday’s visit to check out the Scarlet Knights a big moment for both Erasmus Hall but also the Big Ten program. The entire team was on-hand and stood on the sidelines for practice and a tour of the team’s facility, the Hale Center:
