    Rutgers announces season awards at banquet

    PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- The Rutgers wrestling program, under the guidance of first-year head coach Scott Goodale, announced its 2007-08 award winners at its year-ending banquet Wednesday night.

    Junior Lamar Brown (Red Bank, N.J.), who reached the second day of the NCAA Tournament, received the Ted Petty award, giving to the program's Most Outstanding Wrestler. The Most Improved Wrestler went to sophomore Karim Mahmoud (Wallington, N.J.), who made a successful move from 197-pounds to the heavyweight class. Sophomore Reggie Parker (Upper Marlboro, Md.) won the Scholar-Athlete Award, while senior Steve Adamcsik (Chester, N.J.) received the Dual-Meet Scoring Champion. Adamcsik finished the year 12-3 in dual matches.

    The wrestling team finished 11-7 in 2007-08, Goodale's first season as head coach. Adamcsik and Brown each reached the NCAA Tournament, marking the first time that two RU wrestlers competed in the prestigious event since 2004-05. Goodale also brought in a highly rated recruiting class, ranked No. 10 by WIN Magazine.
