Midnight Madness

The Rutgers men’s basketball team and the Rider men’s and women’s teams will open practice Friday night with Midnight Madness festivities.

The Rutgers men’s event, which the school has dubbed “MidKnight Madness” will start at 11 p.m. at the College Avenue Gym in New Brunswick.

The event is open to the general public and admission is free.The Scarlet Knights went 11-20 last year, but have high hopes thanks to highest rated recruiting class in school history.

The class, ranked 19th in the country by Scout.com, features McDonald’s high school All-American Mike Rosario, a 6-foot-3 guard from Jersey City, and Gregory Echenique, a 6-9 forward from Venezuela via St. Benedict’s Prep in Newark.

Rider, coming off a 23-11 season and a MAAC regular season co-championship, will hold “Midnight MAACness” festivities beginning at 10:30 at Alumni Gym.The event is open to Rider students and faculty but closed to the general public.
