The Hall improves to 2-2 in the BIG EAST after its second road win.
INDIANAPOLIS, IND. – Freshman Savannah Catalon (Burleston, Texas) had a game-high 17 points to lift the Seton Hall women's basketball team to its second BIG EAST road victory of the season, a 64-50 victory over Butler on Saturday.
After shooting just 5-for-39 from three-point range in its last two games, The Hall broke out from downtown against the Bulldogs, going 12-for-22 (55%). Butler was also impressive from deep, hitting 10 three's, but netting only nine two-point field goals.
The Pirates' defense was what we've come to expect, holding Butler to just 50 points. It's the eighth consecutive game that The Hall has held its opponent under 55 points.
Catalon had 17 point on the strength of 5-for-8 shooting from three point range. Micah Gray (Oklahoma City, Okla.) finished with 16 points, 11 of which came in the second half. Azana Baines (Blackwood, N.J.) added 13 more on an efficient 5-for-7 shooting, including 3-for-3 from downtown.
THE STORY:
A fast-break layup by Baines gave The Hall an 11-7 lead in the first, but the Bulldogs closed out the quarter with a 9-0 run to grab a 16-11 lead. The Bulldogs connected on four made three-pointers (4-for-7) in the first, compared to only two made field goals inside the arc.
Seton Hall ratcheted up its defense in the second, holding Butler to just one made field goal over its first 15 shots. The Pirates drubbed the Bulldogs to the tune of a 19-2 advantage in the quarter until Butler hit a three-pointer with 23 seconds to go before halftime. A layup by Gray with only one second left sent The Hall into the locker room up, 32-21. Catalon scored 11 points on the strength of 3-for-5 shooting from three-point range in the second quarter alone.
After Butler cut its deficit to 38-30, the Pirates went on an 8-0 run, and a pretty post move by Makennah White (Farrell, Pa.) gave them a 46-30 lead with 2:45 left in the third quarter.
The Pirates opened the fourth quarter with a 10-0 run, and a three-pointer by Gray with 6:14 left in the game gave them a commanding 59-33 advantage.

Newark, N.J. - Behind 23 points from Al-Amir Dawes (Newark, N.J.) and a 21-point effort from Kadary Richmond (Brooklyn, N.Y.), the Seton Hall men's basketball team picked up its second straight win over a ranked opponent and its third in the last four games with a 78-75 victory over No. 7 Marquette on Saturday at Prudential Center.
The Pirates shot the ball efficiently throughout the day, posting a 52.7 percent clip from the field. With the win, the Pirates improve to 3-1 in BIG EAST play with all three victories coming against teams ranked in the AP Top 25, including a pair of top-10 foes.
How It Happened
Seton Hall took its first lead following three made free throws by Richmond after he was fouled in the act of shooting behind the arc. After falling behind, Dawes' first three-pointer of the afternoon trimmed the Pirates' deficit to one, 14-13, but the Golden Eagles used a 9-0 run to take a 23-13 with 12:47 to play in the first half.
The Pirates' next field goal was Dawes' second three and it kicked off a 25-7 run that turned a seven-point deficit into an eight-point Seton Hall lead, 38-30, with 4:21 left before halftime. A 7-0 run with under three minutes left in the first half helped bring Marquette back within one, 40-39, but a floater along the baseline by sophomore Jaquan Sanders (Queens, N.Y.) with 55 seconds left in the half that gave the Pirates a 42-39 lead going into the locker room.
Marquette opened the second half by tying up the score at 42-42 on a three-point basket. The Pirates countered with a Richmond layup and six consecutive points scored by Dawes that pushed their lead to six, 50-44. Two made free throws by senior Dylan Addae-Wusu (Bronx, N.Y.) off of a steal and another basket in the lane by Richmond made it a 10-point Seton Hall lead and it forced Marquette to call a timeout with 15:41 left to play.
The Pirates' switch to a zone defense helped stymy the Golden Eagles on offense but they continued to chip away and made it a two-point game, 56-54, after a three-pointer with 11:58 to go. Marquette would later tie the score at 66-66 with 5:46 to play before a dunk by junior Elijah Hutchins-Everett (Orange, N.J.) off of a Richmond feed with 4:34 to play put the Pirates back in front for good.
A 10-0 run capped off by back-to-back fast break dunks by Richmond and senior Dre Davis (Indianapolis, Ind.) matched the Pirates' largest lead of the game with 2:26 to go, 76-66, but Marquette wouldn't go away quietly. Despite costly turnovers that made it a one-point game with 40 seconds left, Davis delivered with a huge bucket and the Pirates' defense forced a turnover on the other end that sealed the victory.
