South Orange, N.J. - The No. 22 ranked Seton Hall men's soccer team will clash with in-state rival Rutgers Monday night at Yurcak Field in Piscataway, N.J. In addition to trying to take down the rival Scarlet Knights for the first time 2007, the Pirates are also looking for their first 5-0-0 start 1986.

The match at Yurcak Field is free for all to attend, and the match will be broadcast on Big Ten Plus, which requires a subscription.



MOVING UP IN THE RANKINGS

  • Seton Hall is currently ranked No. 22 in the United Soccer Coaches top-25, which was last released on Sept. 3. When the next poll comes out on Sept. 10, it will only reflect match results through Sunday, Sept. 8.
  • In head coach Andreas Lindberg's tenure, Seton Hall appeared in the United Soccer Coaches top-25 seven times during the 2020 season, reaching as high as No. 6. Then Seton Hall spent four weeks in the national rankings during 2021.
  • The Pirates are one of two BIG EAST teams in the current top-25, joining No. 14 Georgetown.
WIN OVER COLUMBIA

  • Last Friday night, the Pirates won a physical battle with Columbia, and got timely goals and defense in a 2-0 victory at Owen T. Carroll Field.
  • Thomas Sellwood (Sao Paulo, Brazil) scored his first career goal on assists from Rikard Cederberg and Jack Kossoudji in the 32nd minute as the Pirates went up 1-0.
  • The lead held up thanks in large part to seven saves from goalkeeper Soren Jensen, who notched his first career Div. I shutout.
  • Sam Bjork notched a goal in the 82nd minute to put the match away.
B1G SUCCESS

  • The Pirates are looking to defeat a Big Ten team for the second consecutive season. In 2023, the Pirates blanked Ohio State, 1-0, in a match that took place in Bloomington, Ind.
  • Three days after beating Ohio State, the Pirates dropped a 1-0 decision to then-10th ranked Indiana.
  • Seton Hall is 1-2-0 against the Big Ten in Lindberg's tenure; the other loss was also to Indiana in the quarterfinals of the 2020 NCAA Championship.
  • Seton Hall's last true road win over a Big Ten team came Sept. 8, 1995, a 2-1 victory at No. 12 Penn State.

SCOUTING RUTGERS

  • The Scarlet Knights are 3-2-0 to start the season with four of the five matches having two or more goal differentials.
  • Rutgers opened the year with three straight home matches, defeating Northeastern, losing to Delaware and beating Princeton.
  • Rutgers was picked ninth in the Big Ten preseason coaches poll after finishing eighth last season.
  • The Scarlet Knights are only two seasons removed from winning the Big Ten Tournament and advancing to the NCAA Tournament, which occurred in 2022.
SERIES HISTORY

  • This is the first matchup between Seton Hall and Rutgers since 2009, an incredible feat considering only about 30 miles separate the two campuses. The two teams were in the BIG EAST Conference together between 1995 and 2012, and did not face each other in 2010, 2011 and 2012 as a result of the conference's divisional split.
  • Rutgers leads the all-time series, 36-16-5, and while the two programs were in BIG EAST together, Rutgers leads the series 10-5-2.
  • Seton Hall's last win over Rutgers came on Sept. 30, 2007, a 4-1 victory at Owen T. Carroll Field. The last time the Pirates won at Rutgers was Sept. 15, 2006, a 1-0 triumph. Seton Hall has seven all-time wins in Piscataway.
  • The last time Seton Hall was ranked when it faced Rutgers was Sept. 23, 2005 when it was No. 18 and defeated the Scarlet Knights, 2-1. That match took place in Newark on NJIT's campus due to Owen T. Carroll Field renovations.

OPENING SUCCESS

  • With its win at FIU, Seton Hall has now won its season opener under head coach Andreas Lindberg for the fifth time in seven tries, and the Pirates are unbeaten in all seven (5-0-2).
  • With their win over UAlbany, the Pirates are also now 5-0-2 in their home openers under Lindberg and have not lost a home opener since 2016.

South Orange, N.J. -- Skyler Matusz (Kearny, N.J.) scored the game-winning goal in the 85th minute in the Seton Hall women's soccer team's 1-0 win over NJIT on Sunday afternoon at Owen T. Carroll Field.

Rachel Gerrie (Littleton, Colo.) tallied her first assist of the season on Matusz's goal. After facing two NCAA Tournament teams on the road in their last two games, the Pirates (3-3-1) snapped a two-game losing skid with the victory as they improved to 2-1 on the season at Owen T. Carroll Field.

How It Happened

It was a jagged start for both sides. NJIT had its first shot attempt saved by Anna Prawer (London, England) in the third minute and Matusz posted The Hall's first shot on goal of the game in the 21st minute. The Highlanders had the best scoring chance in the 39th minute where a precise pass created a one-on-one opportunity with Prawer in front of the goal. Prawer, however, was able to kick save the NJIT shot attempt that kept the score knotted up at 0-0.

Seton Hall had four shots in the first 25 minutes and continued to knock on the door for a score. Of the Pirates' five corner kicks, four of them came in the second half. The Hall gained possession of the ball in their attacking half the 84th minute after Nina Davis (Ramsey, N.J.) drew a foul. The free kick set piece did not end with an attempt but the ball would go out of bound for a Seton Hall throw in on the far side of the field. Brina Micheels (Plattsburgh, N.Y.) took the throw in and tossed it to Gerrie, who sent a beautiful pass into the scoring area that was finished off with a goal by Matusz, giving Seton Hall a 1-0 lead.

Inside The Box Score
  • Seton Hall finished with a 5-0 advantage on corner kicks.
  • Both teams finished with double-digits in shots with the Pirates posting a 14-11 edge.
  • NJIT had five shots on goal to Seton Hall's three.
  • Head coach Josh Osit now has 14 career wins.
  • Matusz has one goal this season, four in her career, and two career game-winning scores.
  • Matusz now has 13 career points on four goals and five assists.
  • Matusz has taken nine shots this season and five of them have been on target.
  • Gerrie now has two assists and four points in her career.
  • Micheels, Natalie Tavana (Middletown, Conn.), Chiara Pucci (Munich, Germany) and Lily Camacho (Summit, N.J.) played the full 90 minutes.

Maddy Loiselle is named to the Seton Hall Classic All-Tournament Team.
SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. – In a match of several individual superlatives, senior Jenna Walsh (Foothill Ranch, Calif.) and sophomore Maddy Loiselle (Lutz, Fla.) each had 14 kills as the Seton Hall women's volleyball team rallied for a 3-1 (20-25, 25-18, 26-24, 25-11) victory over Kent State on Sunday.

The victory gives The Hall a perfect 3-0 record in this year's Seton Hall Classic. Loiselle was named to the All-Tournament Team. The Pirates rallied after losing the first set to win their third straight match and climb back to .500 at 3-3 on the young season.

Walsh finished with 14 kills, 12 digs and a career-high five service aces. Loiselle had a career-high 14 kills and a team-best .379 attack percentage. Graduate student Reagan Merk (Huntington Beach, Calif.) also had a double-double with 10 kills, 10 digs and three blocks.

Libero Rylee Nelson (Mazeppa, Minn.) picked up a career-best 24 digs. Senior Maddie Klungel (Napa, Calif.) filled the box score again, flirting with a triple-double with 17 assists, seven kills, eight digs and five blocks.

SET 1:
Seton Hall scored eight of the first 10 points in set one, but Kent State rallied with a 12-3 run to take a 14-11 lead. A kill by Loiselle cut The Hall's deficit to only two points, 18-16, but the Golden Flashes answered with a 6-1 spurt to enter set point, 24-17. The Hall scored three straight, but KSU eventually found their 25th point for a 25-20 victory. The Hall had only a .091 attack percentage in the opening stanza.

SET 2:
With the score tied at 11 in the second set, Seton Hall scored four straight and never trailed again. Clinging to an 18-17 advantage, The Hall closed the match with a 7-1 run. Up 22-18, the Pirates finished with a kill by Gwen Adler (Barrington, Ill.) and two from Klungel.

SET 3:
The third set was, by far, the closest of the match. The teams combined for 13 ties and six lead changes with neither team taking a lead of greater than three points. With Seton Hall facing a Kent State set point, 24-23, a kill by Loiselle staved off the loss and tied the set at 24. An ace by Adler put the Pirates in set point, and a block by Klungel and freshman Grace Turner (La Grange Highlands, Ill.) gave them a come-from-behind, 26-24, victory in set three.

SET 4:
Kent State seemingly ran out of gas in the fourth set as the Pirates never trailed and held the Golden Flashes to just a -.083 attack percentage. With the score tied at two, The Hall went on an 8-1 run, and a block by Merk and Asli Subasili (Tekirdag, Turkiye) put it up 10-3. With the Pirates up 14-8, they closed out the set with an 11-3 run.

Harris

SHallguy2
Interesting story in the AP News, tried to link it here but when you copy the link[older] it sends you to a positive story instead. Media manipulation? Maybe just user error, but really appears the link has been changed. Copy and paste below, thinking she’s simply lazy or an empty suit. Apparently over 500 claims never answered or looked into of clergy abuse. Sounds like she’s a champion of the gridiron prosecutor on offense all the time.

Jun 26, 2019

SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Joey Piscitelli was angry when Kamala Harris emerged as a contender for the Democratic presidential nomination. It brought back the frustration he felt in the 2000s, when he was a newly minted spokesman for clergy sex abuse victims and Harris was San Francisco’s district attorney.
Piscitelli says Harris never responded to him when he wrote to tell her that a priest who had molested him was still in ministry at a local Catholic cathedral. And, he says, she didn’t reply five years later when he wrote again, urging her to release records on accused clergy to help other alleged victims who were filing lawsuits.

“She did nothing,” said Piscitelli, today the Northern California spokesman for SNAP, the Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests.
Survivors of clergy abuse and their attorneys say that Harris’ record on fighting sex abuse within the Catholic Church is relevant as the U.S. senator from California campaigns for the presidency as a tough-on-crime ex-prosecutor who got her start prosecuting child sexual abuse cases. They complain that Harris was consistently silent on the Catholic Church’s abuse scandal — first as district attorney in San Francisco and later as California’s attorney general.
In a statement to The Associated Press, the Harris campaign underscored her record of supporting child sex abuse victims but did not address her silence regarding victims abused by Catholic clerics.
“Kamala Harris has been a staunch advocate on behalf of sexual assault victims, especially child sexual assault victims,” the statement said, noting that she “used her position as District Attorney to create the first unit focused on child sexual assault cases in the office’s history.”
The statement said she withheld documents regarding clergy sexual abuse from attorneys and news reporters to protect the identities of victims — reasoning faulted by victims and their lawyers.
Catholics make up large voting blocs in the city and the state, accounting for roughly a quarter of the population in both San Francisco’s metro area and across California.
“There’s a potential political risk if you move aggressively against the church,” said Michael Meadows, a Bay Area attorney who has represented clergy abuse victims. “I just don’t think she was willing to take it.”
Before Harris was elected district attorney in 2003, a U.S. Supreme Court decision made it impossible to pursue criminal prosecutions of child sexual abuse cases after statutes of limitation had expired. For many victims, that left lawsuits in civil court as the only path for seeking justice.

After Harris took office as DA in 2004, attorneys representing abuse survivors in civil cases asked her office to release church records on abusive priests that had been gathered by her predecessor, Terence Hallinan.
Harris refused, a decision her office said was intended to protect the identities of clergy abuse victims. “It would be virtually impossible to release records without compromising the identity of the victims,”two of her top aides said in a joint letter.
Victims and their attorneys scoffed at the explanation, contending it would be a simple matter to avoid identifying the victims. “What she was saying was utter nonsense,” said Meadows, the Bay Area attorney. “All she had to do was redact any identifying information.”
Victims’ lawyers said Harris’ office also resisted informal requests to help them with their cases, at a time when other district attorneys or their staff members were making themselves available.
“Of all the DAs in the Bay Area, she’s the only one who wouldn’t cooperate with us,” said Rick Simons, an attorney who was the court-appointed coordinator for clergy abuse cases filed in Northern California, as well as Piscitelli’s personal lawyer.
In 2006, Piscitelli won his civil suit against the Salesians of Don Bosco, a Catholic religious order that employed his abuser, the Rev. Stephen Whelan, after a jury trial. The verdict was upheld on appeal two years later.
By 2010, Harris was running for state attorney general, once again highlighting her work for victims of sexual abuse. With new urgency, Piscitelli wrote Harris his second letter, asking her to release the clergy personnel files her predecessor had obtained. “We all know you can redact the names of the children from the documents,” he wrote. “Nobody is being fooled.”
At about the same time, the SF Weekly renewed a previous public records request for the church documents on sexual abuse. Harris again refused to release them, her office still adamant that the decision had been made with the victims in mind. “We’re not interested in selling out our victims to look good in the paper,” her office said in a statement.
After Harris was elected California attorney general in 2010, she continued to avoid taking a stand on the Catholic Church’s abuse problem, according to Piscitelli and other advocates. They say that the state’s current attorney general, Xavier Becerra, has been more aggressive in dealing with the issue.
When Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro released an explosive grand jury report in August 2018 finding that 300 priests had molested more than 1,000 victims over 70 years, Piscitelli and other SNAP members staged a protest outside Becerra’s office, demanding he take similar action.
The next day, Piscitelli said, Becerra’s office invited him and others at the protest to a meeting where district attorneys from across the state joined a conference call and listened as victims and advocates suggested avenues for inquiry.
Although Becerra has not officially confirmed an investigation, his office has sent letters to dioceses throughout the state seeking church documents, and his website is soliciting tips from victims and other sources.
Anne Barret Doyle, co-director of the advocacy group BishopAccountability.org, attended the meeting at the attorney general’s office with Piscitelli and other SNAP members. “The current attorney general is showing an awareness of the ongoing problem of clergy sexual abuse in California that Kamala Harris didn’t exhibit at all,” she said.

The Axios article was about urban metro areas where most of the highest per capita homicides are still in the south. So, your point is that if you live in a city that is where the gun deaths. You don't care about state laws which of course are direct impact on the cities.

If the urban cities in the states with the most restrictive gun laws have a less per capita rate than the cities in the State with the lease restrictive gun law, but you see no correlation? Of course, the State impacts on the cities within that State.

Fair enough. And do those states have more consequences for criminals too?

The majority of the BE can do that $4-5M per year without much of a problem. It's only a challenge for us, Butler and DePaul.

To most schools, they have much larger endowments and much better alumni giving. NIL is just a reallocation of those donations. No need to constantly spend on athletic facilities, NIL is the new arms race.

I think it will continue out of control until the big lawsuits are settled and the NCAA finally takes control of the situation and establishes rules. Its chaos right now. Reading the Times article and the piece over the Summer in The Athletic, no one is abiding by rules and major tampering is taking place in December and January. Kadary's case wasn't unique, it was the norm.

The link I posted had stats of metro and non-metro deaths with metro about 85%. The other link stated most gun homicides were in urban areas.

State stats are a bit misleading also. Texas has one of the highest rates, but 62% are suicides, and the cities account for most of homicides. Black deaths 5:1 over other races. If you want to propose legislation there, suggest something that’s going to move the needle.
