Rutgers has won three more games than all of last season.This team has a never-say-die attitude, Williams said. You gotta give it to our coach. He came in with a plan, with a lot of energy. That was different for us. We kind of feed off of that.C.J. Gettys had 12 points, eight rebounds and four assists for the Scarlet Knights.

Holloway was ejected after being called for a flagrant foul after hitting Freeman in the face on a drive with 4:36 remaining. The New Jersey-based Knights dropped to 1/3 against Jersey schools this season but coach Greg Herenda was proud of his teams effort.I love them, they just gotta love themselves, and they went down fighting tonight, said Herenda, whose team reached the NCAA Tournament last year and was picked to win the Northeast Conference this season. Our mantra tonight was `Fight dont fold, and they didnt fold. I see a bright future for Fairleigh Dickinson.Rutgers: Johnson, who entered the game tied with Freeman as Rutgers leading scorer with a 13.0 average, got his first start of the season. Freeman had 10 rebounds in the first half. The victory gave the Scarlet Knights their first 8-0 home start since 2001-02, while Pikiell continues to enjoy the best start for a first-year head coach in Rutgers history.Thats very important, Sanders said of the home record.
