SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. – Sophomore Shailyn Pinkney (East Hartford, Conn.) provided a much-needed spark off the bench in the second half to lift the Seton Hall women's basketball team to a 77-46 victory over Central Connecticut State on Friday.

After leading by only 11 at the half, The Hall wore down the Blue Devils after halftime, thanks in large part by the spirited efforts from the bench. Pinkney scored all nine of her points in the second half, including seven in the fourth quarter.

In all, six Pirates scored at least nine points with sophomore Micah Gray (Oklahoma City, Okla.) leading the way with 17. Azana Baines (Blackwood, N.J.) and Amari Wright (Jacksonville, Fla.) had 10 points apiece. A'Jah Davis (DeKalb, Ill.) collected her second double-double of the season with 10 points and a game-high 11 rebounds.

THE STORY:
Central Connecticut State scored to tie the game at four with 7:34 left in the first quarter, but The Hall answered with a 10-0 run, and a layup by Baines gave it a 14-4 lead. CCSU outscored The Hall 6-to-2 over the final three minutes giving the Pirates a 16-10 lead after 10 minutes.

Leading 20-17, The Hall went on a 10-2 run, and a driving layup by Wright gave it a 30-19 advantage with 3:03 to go before halftime. Seton Hall took a 32-21 lead into the locker room. The Hall out-rebounded CCSU in the first half, 23-to-12, but turnovers were even at eight apiece.

The Blue Devils cut their deficit to 12 points with 2:52 left in the third quarter, but The Hall responded with seven straight points to boost its lead back to 18 with under a minute left.

In the fourth, the Pirates outscored CCSU, 26-to-12, and grew its lead to as many as 35 points.

I’ll be there, probably a few minutes late. Site won’t let me register online, so I hope I can pay at door.

Sha struggles to manage the game and it played out again tonight. Last year and so far this year it constantly felt like we close in on these deficits and never have enough to get over the hump. Certainly some of it is the players/lack of fire power. A huge part of it is Sha.

Sitting a few rows behind the bench tonight is finally where it all clicked for me watching how Sha manages the game and his bench. We go on runs to claw back. Our guys are gassed and Sha doesn’t take timeouts to curb or support the momentum. KW often would take a timeout after a big shot or would give a short defensive leash before reeling it in. We become to predictable and Baylor was able to make adjustments to how they defended Richmond and how the defended the high pick and roll with Bediako. Sha made no adjustments.

We get the game within 3. Immediately Baylor takes it to 9. KR misses back to back attempts and then disappears for the rest of the game (final 8 minutes) while our NFL Linebacker takes over the offensive ball handling duties and we have 4 empty possessions in a row before Davis catches a flagrant.

Baylor fan sitting near me asked me at half time “why does your coach allow #2 to play and shoot like he does?”

Our Turkish guy didn’t travel to the game- neither did Coach Davis.

Tubek is going to be a good player in 2 years.

After a brutal 1st half- EHE showed some great potential in the second half. Had a bit of bad luck on a few plays, but overall happy with what I saw.

Not sure how it looked on TV, but from watching in person I think Baylor is a bit overrated. They are well coached and have some nice pieces, but I’m not sure that they showed they are top 10 good.

I bought 12 tickets in Suite 202 and only 10 are being used. We already have a couple SHU fans mixed in and and we're not D-Bags. They were $96 plus $37 in Seat Geek fees so $133 each.

I’m starting to feel bad for Dawes and how bad his level of play has gotten. His performance in our 3 games against good teams is shockingly bad and a big reason we get off to slow starts. Hard to believe.

Pretty bad what he’s been putting up on both sides of the floor. This is not a team that can carry such poor play. What do you do with a 5th year player and 2-year starter playing like this?

Otherwise I thought there was some good tonight from Richmond and the centers, at least.

The Seton Hall Pirates faded down the stretch against the #6 ranked Baylor Bears Tuesday night in Waco, Texas, falling by a score of 78-60.

The Bears ripped off separate 8-0 runs in the second half to pull away after a 7-0 Pirate run cut the lead to 50-47, the smallest deficit since the first media timeout, early in the second half. Baylor would respond to that run with the first of those 8-0 runs as RayJ Dennis and Ja’Kobe Walter hit back-to-back threes off baseline set plays that reenergized a sleeping home crowd af the Ferrell Center.

The second of two Dre Davis three-pointers assisted by Kadary Richmond would cut the score to 60-52 before the second of those 8-0 Baylor runs would push the lead to its then biggest of the night at 68-52.

Richmond led the Pirates with 18 points on 8-13 shooting while tallying 6 assists, 4 rebounds and 3 steals. Jaden Bediako notched 10 points, 6 rebounds and 4 blocks and Davis rounded out the team’s double-digit scorers with 12 points to go along with 4 rebounds.

Dennis and Walter led Baylor with 17 and 15 points, respectively, while freshman center Yves Missi finished with 13 points and 8 rebounds and Langston Love came off the bench to add 11 points.

Baylor improved to 9-0 by shooting 50.9% from the field, including 10-22 from beyond the arc, and assisting on 17 of 25 made field goals. The Pirates meanwhile shot just 42.6% from the floor and 30.8% from three-point land.

The Pirates traded baskets with the Bears early to maintain a 10-9 deficit heading into the first media timeout before an 18-6 Baylor run over the ensuing 8 minutes capped by a long alley-oop to Missi led to a 28-15 score by the under eight-minute timeout.

The Pirates forced nine first-half Baylor turnovers to only four of their own to keep the game within striking distance while being outrebounded 20-12 in the opening frame. Both statistics came into balance as Seton Hall ultimately turned the ball over 11 times to Baylor’s 12 while cutting the rebounding deficit to 28-31.

A momentum swinging sequence closed out the first half when Dylan Addae-Wusu was called for an offensive foul trying to race up the sideline after corralling a loose ball with less than 20 seconds left. A drive and kick on the last play resulted in Love sinking an open corner three, the Bears’ eighth of the half, that would punctuate a 7-0 Pirate run and extend Baylor’s lead to 42-32 heading into the break.

The loss drops Seton Hall 5-3 on the season, including 0-3 against high-major competition, with a home tilt against in-state rival Rutgers in the Garden State Hardwood Classic scheduled for Dec. 9.

Central Connecticut State is coming off a 17-22 season in 2022-23, which included a 3-13 record in Northeast Conference (NEC) play. The Blue Devils finished the season with a quarterfinal loss in the NEC Tournament to FDU, which was their seventh straight defeat.

The Blue Devils have two starters returning from last season, Belle Lanpher and Meghan Kenefick. Lanpher was named to the 2023-24 Preseason All-NEC Women's Basketball Team. Head coach Way Veney is CCSU’s new head coach this season. She has made seven postseason trips as an assistant coach and brings nearly 20 years of coaching experience to CCSU.

The Blue Devils enter Friday with a 1-8 record having lost four straight games. Their lone victory was a 58-49 win over UMass Lowell on Nov. 21. Most recently, CCSU was routed by Albany on Wednesday, 56-37. Lanpher had a team-high 13 points. Samora Watson currently leads the team with 15.3 points per game.
