Rutgers Modest Team Preview 09-10

Wednesday, January 6th, 2010

By David F.P.

Here’s a quick look at the Rutgers Scarlet Knights this season.
What follows is a discussion of the roster in terms of who is new to the team and who has left it, and beyond that is an overview of last year’s lineup and their scores to attempt to give a picture of the contributions made by the returnees. You’ll also find a brief snapshot of some of the moves the team has performed, as well as info as to how the team performed last year, and a discussion of the team’s opponents this year. As always, for more info you can consult the official athletics site and the Troester Gyminfo web site. I try to blend the perspective of just being a fan of gymnastics, so I cannot offer the technical discussion that might be found from experts, but I do what I can. Please note that it is difficult to locate stats from the postseason championships due to some websites being down so the stats quoted are based on the best available information.
