Local News for Rutgers University-New Brunswick

Despite position changes and demotions, Rutgers senior still positive September 30th

A wide receiver turned tight end. A starter turned backup. And now an H-back fighting for the job he once had. Senior Shamar Graves underwent as many changes to his role on the Rutgers football team as Russell Crowe’s Maximus in “Gladiator.”

Rutgers defense getting better after tumultuous start September 29th

Ask Rutgers head football coach Greg Schiano about his team, and you will hear him say it. “We’re getting better” — Schiano’s favorite words. The true freshmen, fighting for playing time, are getting better. The offensive line, still undergoing tweaking, is getting better. And the wide receiver corps, with just one catch outside of the two starters, is getting better. Take one look at the defense, though, and believe it. They are better.

Young goalies adjust to co-starting roles for Rutgers field hockey September 29th

One is a short drive down the New Jersey turnpike; the other is a plane flight away from her East Texas home. But no matter the distance, freshmen goalkeepers Vickie Lavell and Shanice Beasley are both settling into their new home for the next four years — the front of the cage for the Rutgers field hockey team.
