For Hall, it was Manchester, England native's 10th tally of the year as he continues to lead all Big Ten scorers.

"They are difficult, they are organized, defend really well and tough to break down," said head coach Dan Donigan of Northwestern. "I'm very happy for my guys. We really needed that game. Obviously it was a huge win and gives us six points in the conference. It puts us in a good spot. We have to take care of business as we come down the stretch with a difficult game against Indiana, which is home, and then on the road at Penn State, and have the opportunity to pick up more points."

The game's first goal belonged to Wall as he netted his first collegiate goal in the 74th minute. In his third consecutive start, the Scarlet Knight midfielder received a pass from Hall and got into the Wildcat net from the top right side of the 18.

The Rutgers men's soccer team hits the road for a nonconference contest at Lafayette on Tuesday, Oct. 16 at 7 p.m.
