LAST GAME

Freshman Jada Eads (Orlando, Fla.) erupted for a game-high 26 points, but a depleted Seton Hall women’s basketball team fell, 68-61, to Marquette in Walsh Gymnasium on Wednesday.



Seton Hall was down several players due to illness, most notably starter Savannah Catalon (Mansfield, Texas).



The key to Seton Hall’s victory over Marquette in Milwaukee on Jan. 15 was out-rebounding the Golden Eagles, which was leading the BIG EAST in rebounds at the time. Today, The Hall was out-rebounded, 41-to-28, including 10 of the first 12 rebounding going to Marquette.



Eads had 26 points on 10-for-21 shooting from the field. Graduate student Kaydan Lawson (Cleveland, Ohio), making her first start of the season, had 10 points and three rebounds.



Seton Hall All-Time vs. the Friars: Seton Hall leads, 47-31

Earlier this Year:

Seton Hall 51, Providence 40 (F) – December 16, 2024 (Walsh Gymnasium)



AGAINST PROVIDENCE


Seton Hall and Providence will meet for the second time this season on Sunday. The Pirates own a 47-31 all-time series lead and have won 10 of the last 11 and 22 of the last 25 meetings. Seton Hall has won its last five games at Alumni Hall and is 5-2 on the road this season. Providence is 7-6 at home this year.



EARLIER THIS YEAR AGAINST PROVIDENCE


Jada Eads had a career-high 25 points and the Pirates defeated Providence, 51-40, in the BIG EAST Conference opener for both teams on Dec. 21 in Walsh Gym. The Pirates’ suffocating defense held the Friars to just 40 points and forced a season-high 30 turnovers.



Eads had a game-high 25 points on 6-for-12 shooting from the floor and 11-for-15 shooting from the free-throw line. She collected her career-high in points for a third straight game. Faith Masonius had 18 points to go with five rebounds and five steals.



Kaydan Lawson, who made her return to the court after missing seven games with an injury, erupted for eight points, a team-best nine rebounds, three assists, four steals and a monster block with 1:49 remaining in the game.



SCOUTING PROVIDENCE


This season, Providence is picked to finish third in the 11-team BIG EAST Conference. Both Olivia Olsen and Grace Efosa were named to the Preseason All-BIG EAST Team.



Providence enters Sunday’s contest with an 11-16 overall record and an underwhelming 4-10 mark in BIG EAST play. The Friars have lost eight of their last 11 games, but most recently, won at Xavier, 61-53, on Wednesday. One of the better defensive teams in the conference, Providence is allowing only 59.9 points per game and leads the BIG EAST in three-point field goal defense. They’re also second in the conference in blocks per game. Efosa currently leads the team with 13.9 points per game.



UP NEXTSeton Hall will return to action on Wednesday, Feb. 19 when it returns to a sold out historic Walsh Gymnasium to host No. 4 Connecticut. Tip time is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. ET. The contest will be televised on SNY. 89.5 FM WSOU or wsou.net will also carry the game.

DOGE

Trump's 4 year he exploded the deficit. Did he not? And even under the Republican's budgetary plan, the deficit will increase another 4 trillion. Please do not tell me you believe Trump is going to do nothing but increase the national debt.
Yes, the deficit exploded during Trump 1.0 and Biden, primarily because of the pandemic. Did you forget that? I have no idea what he is going to do and what he is going to accomplish. Everything we are talking about here is what he’s doing and why he’s doing it. I’ve said repeatedly that he and Republicans are on the clock.

Just a question. Three separate SJU beat writers told me with benefits that Repole laid out nearly $2M to get Richmond to come back 'home'. Have you heard differently?

And regarding Repole...If he quietly brought in Richmond and others then yes, I would have less of an issue because as you noted he was 'playing by the rules'. But his constant harping both behind the scenes and in the papers how he brought Richmond to SJU irritated a lot of people at the Hall and me as well.

You and I don’t have total visibility into what’s actually happening. It’s anecdotal but I have a friend whose son works for the FAA. Received the letter but was told he was essential and would not be eligible. Another friend whose sister works at the navy shipyard in DC and was going to retire this year. She is taking the package. And if you haven’t noticed the deficit has skyrocketed so there is an urgency to address it.

They hated him but he obviously got GOP support. How?

Look at the last four years. All Biden did was spend money. Did nothing to address the deficit and Kamala said let’s not change anything.

And at what costs? How many people are going to be wrongfully out of a job without due process? So you find waste, you destroy the entire agency and fire everyone? People with knowledge and expertise? They are throwing the baby out with the bath water.

And by the way, The Republicans hated Clinton. HE was the enemy. This ridiculous tribalism started with Newt Gingrich during the Clinton Administration. Bill Clinton was extraordinary at putting aside the differences with people who hated him and working with those same people to get things done.

Don't think Democrats would be somehow against cutting waste and fraud. Trump is doing it this way so he can have the Dems look like they are against cutting waste because they will argue against his tactics.

There has been too much misinformation here about the collectives. Most did not and will not receive tax exempt status. The contributions to such entities therefore would not be tax deductible as charitable contributions, but could be deductible as a business expense assuming it meets the ordinary and necessary citeria of section 162(a).

Check out the IRS CCM on the link for some further insight on the IRS position.

Talk about misinformation, most did receive 501c3 status. The IRS went on over a year before coming up with an answer on this. So anyone who created a non profit like Hall Hands on Deck in that time received it. And there were a lot of them within that year because people didn't want to be behind the 8-ball. It's only been recently they've been rejecting them.

St Johns/Nova

More surprising he didn’t go to Duke with the roster they have IMO. But he is a NY kid, so there’s definitely that.
Don’t believe the Pitino talk about him staying at SH if money was equal. It is just Pitino trying to deflect some heat off one of Willard’s boys.

Richmond wanted to go to SJU out of high school but didn’t want to play for Anderson and then went to Boeheim another HOF coach.

If he stood quiet and just monetarily helped the school, that's one thing. But to continuously brag in the papers how he was going to take Richmond from SHU and knowing what he did to accomplish it, info I got directly from three separate SJU reporters, I have no love for the guy.
He is a great guy, who is from Queens and loves St. John’s. Nothing wrong with him supporting his school. He also gave 50 million to Sloan Kettering for cancer care in honor of his grandmother.

Don’t hate the person playing by the rules. Hate the spine less leaders at the NCAA headquarters who created this system

DOGE

There’s a couple of things that are happening here. First part is about the “show”. Using DOGE and Musk to dig in and report information every single day about the waste of government spending. It’s like having a running “chiron” 24/7. And it’s getting the desired effect in the media. Every single day time is devoted on the news. Reinforces the issue that he ran on and distracts from everything else that’s going on. The controversial picks for his cabinet have gotten a little attention in the last month. Putting Musk in charge was brilliant. First of all, he has the credibility and background in driving automation and efficiency. Second, he has name recognition that gets responses from everyone, both positive and negative.

The second part is about saving money and eliminating waste. Trump is taking extreme actions and the courts are stepping in where he crosses the line. That’s how the system is supposed to work. We all know at some point Congress is going to have to approve the vast majority of these cuts or investments to streamline. Heck, there have been programs before like the Grace report that identified waste. We also know that Trump only has two years to get momentum going on this before the midterms. And a lot of this waste will also provide ammunition to get the budget bills through.
GOP members in certain districts really will have a dilemma with snap and medicaid

DOGE

And the difference when Clinton was President was the Congress would work in a bipartisan way and collaboratively on such issues. That has essentially disappeared. And it happened before Trump.

Trump is going to make the cuts that he’s allowed to do. The courts have already halted or pushed back on a number of his actions. Those will essentially have to go through Congress.

Right now it is a show and it is also accomplishing what it was designed to do. History shows that government is great at scope creep, fraud, and spending money foolishly. There have been programs before as well as cuts. I can’t wait to see them audit all the money that was spent over the past five years through the pandemic. And that’s under Trump and Biden‘s watch. There was so much pork thrown into the stimulus bills that should shine a light on how these elected officials were irresponsible.
And at what costs? How many people are going to be wrongfully out of a job without due process? So you find waste, you destroy the entire agency and fire everyone? People with knowledge and expertise? They are throwing the baby out with the bath water.

And by the way, The Republicans hated Clinton. HE was the enemy. This ridiculous tribalism started with Newt Gingrich during the Clinton Administration. Bill Clinton was extraordinary at putting aside the differences with people who hated him and working with those same people to get things done.
