Lady Knights In the Mix, Again

Rutgers R.small
The Lady Knights are doing much better than their male counterparts but still not what one has come to expect. They are currently ranked 22/23 in the nation, are second in the Big East and have a very respectable 15-7, 8-3 record. They have five games remaining before the Big East tournament gets under way and, barring a major collapse, should enter as the number 2 seed.

Away games remain with Syracuse (2/14), Villanova (2/17), and Notre Dame (2/24). They face Providence (2/20) and Connecticut (2/26) at the RAC. That last game against Connecticut, currently leading the big East with a 22-2, 11-0 record could be interesting. UConn is currently #4/5 in the nation and defeated RU 60-50 last Tuesday at home.

This may not be the year they challenge for the national title, but the Lady Knights still have a big role to play in determining who does compete.
