For the second straight season, the Rutgers women’s basketball team has been knocked out of the Big East Tournament quarterfinals by Louisville. The Scarlet Knights gave it a good shot Sunday night in Hartford but it was too much of the Cardinals’ all-league senior forward Angel McCoughtry, who scored 35-points including seven in the second overtime period. So Rutgers heads back home with a 19-12 record…18-12 in the eyes of the NCAA Tournament Selection Committee which does not recognize R-U’s win over Division-Three SUNY-Farmingdale. But as I said in my last post, the win over Seton Hall on Saturday in the opening round was all the Scarlet Knights had to do to nail down an NCAA At-Large berth. However, Vivian Stringer and Company will have to wait seven long days until next week’s Selection Monday to see that news become official.
