It is very impressive that New Jersey natives make up 25 % of the finalists tonight in the NCAA National Wrestling Championship. 2 kids from TX and only 1 from CA was a surprise.

The recruiting should pick up with the new wrestling facility being built and 2 Rutgers wrestlers making the finals.

It appears you need 3 AAs and 3 NSs to compete with the likes of Ohio State and Penn State.

We have a Brain Drain in this state and I would say the Athlete Drain is even worse---We pay to educate these kids and some other state gets the benefits--Time to end this.

Good luck to Nick Suriano and Anthony Ashnault !!

2 National Champs from Rutgers in one year -- incredible.

Rutgers better promote and market the #### out of this and use this and the new facility to pick up recruiting big time.

There is no excuse now--You can be a National Champ at Rutgers.

Goodale has a nice recruiting class coming in. It should be noted that although we have a great program it is exceedingly difficult to win national championships. We’ve proven we can do it, but we need to be realistic about how regularly they can and will occur

Next year Suriano has another opportunity to repeat as champ.Then we need to figure out the next set of wrestlers on the roster beyond 2020 who will All American.We definitely need a couple more to join NS on the podium next season.
