    PISCATAWAY, N.J. -– The Rutgers wrestling program, under the guidance of first-year head coach Scott Goodale, will return to conference action when it faces American on Sunday, Feb. 10, at the College Ave. Gym, starting at noon. The Scarlet Knights (9-6, 4-2) are currently in fifth place in the EIWA, while American (3-11, 1-3) is in ninth place.

    The Scarlet Knights will be led by junior Matt Pletcher (Eastampton, N.J.) who is 22-4 on the season at 165 pounds with four major decisions, and redshirt senior Steve Adamcsik (Chester, N.J.) who is 21-5 at 141, including a 10-2 mark in duals and a team-high nine major decisions.
