PISCATAWAY, N.J. (Interstat) — The Rutgers women’s basketball team looks to continue its strong start to the season when it hosts Fairleigh Dickinson on Sunday, Nov. 16, 2025, at the Louis Brown Athletic Center.

The Scarlet Knights (3-1) are coming off a 68-63 home victory over Rhode Island on Thursday. Nene Ndiaye led the way with 24 points and five rebounds, while Kaylah Ivey added 13 points. Their lone loss was a 71-54 defeat against Stony Brook on Nov. 9.

Fairleigh Dickinson (2-2) arrives with momentum after a narrow 65-63 road win against Manhattan on Wednesday. Madlena Gerke scored a team-high 21 points in that contest, and Ava Renninger added 18 points and eight assists. The Knights have faced two Power Five opponents already this season, falling to Purdue and Notre Dame.

This in-state matchup features two teams nicknamed Knights, with Rutgers using the Scarlet Knights moniker. Rutgers’ schedule intensifies after this game with a trip to Auburn, while Fairleigh Dickinson visits NJIT on Nov. 25.
