No. 9 Pittsburgh proved too much for the Scarlet Knight tonight despite Quincy Douby's 27 points. The Panthers enoyed a balanced attack with five players in double figures lead by Aaron Grays 20 points.
Rutgers played Pittsburgh tight in the first half and took a one point lead with less than ten seconds left when Douby sank a three-point shot from well beyond the arc. The Panthers crept ahead early in the second half and, when Douby had to sit after being tagged with his third and fourth fouls in less than a minute halfway through, opened a ten point lead with only a few minutes to go.
