NEWARK, N.J. – No. 12 Rutgers wrestling (8-0) defeated No. 12 North Carolina (28-9) and Hofstra (35-6) on Saturday night at the Prudential Center in Newark. The Scarlet Knights are now 8-0 to open the season, the best start for the program since the 2014-15 campaign.
 
RU won 15 out of 20 individual matchups, which included 2-0 nights from No. 3 Sebastian Rivera (141), No. 5 John Poznanski (184), No. 12 Sammy Alvarez (133), No. 14 Greg Bulsak (197), No. 23 Dylan Shawver (125) and No. 25 Michael VanBrill (149). Bulsak picked up wins over two ranked opponents, while Alvarez, Rivera, Poznanski and Connor O'Neill (174) all added pins.

"It was an awesome atmosphere here tonight," said head coach Scott Goodale. "We showed we're a really capable team. There's a lot of work to do and a lot to clean up, but I'm so happy to be back wrestling a normal dual schedule."
