IN THE BIG EAST TOURNAMENT

Seton Hall is 28-38 all-time in the BIG EAST Tournament. The Pirates and Bluejays will be meeting for the fourth year in a row in the quarterfinals, although this is the first time that the teams have escaped the seeded 3/6 game. Here’s a look at the last three BIG EAST Tournament meetings with Creighton:

2023 - #3 Creighton 75, #6 Seton Hall 74 (F) in OT

2022 - #6 Seton Hall 66, #3 Creighton 65 (F)

2021 – #6 Creighton, 83, #3 Seton Hall 76 (F)

Seton Hall is 1-3 all-time against the Bluejays in the BIG EAST Tournament.

LAST GAME

The Seton Hall women’s basketball team drained a season-high 13 three-pointers and held off DePaul, 71-64, to advance to the quarterfinal round of the 2024 BIG EAST Tournament, at Mohegan Sun Arena on Friday.

With the victory, The Hall will now play No. 2 seeded Creighton in the BIG EAST quarterfinals on Saturday for a fourth year in a row.

The Pirates took the lead midway through the second quarter and never trailed again. They held Anaya Peoples, a Second Team All-BIG EAST selection, to only four points before she fouled out with 7:35 remaining in the game.

Graduate student Azana Baines (Blackwood, N.J.) had 17 points, seven rebounds and two blocks. Micah Gray (Oklahoma City, Okla.) had 16 point on the strength of four made three-pointers. Freshman Savannah Catalon (Burleson, Texas) had 13 points and drew eight fouls. Kae Satterfield (New York, N.Y.) tallied 10 points and a team-high eight rebounds.

Seton Hall All-Time vs. the Bluejays: Creighton leads, 19-6

2023-24 Meetings:

#23 Creighton 72, Seton Hall 65 (F) – March 3, 2024 (Walsh Gymnasium)

#21 Creighton 57, Seton Hall 49 (F) – January 28, 2024 (D.J. Sokol Arena)

AGAINST CREIGHTON

Seton Hall and Creighton will meet for the 26th time in history on Saturday with the Bluejays owning a 19-6 all-time series lead. Creighton has won five straight games against the Pirates and swept the home-and-home season series this season, although both games were close. These teams played as recent as Sunday with the Bluejays coming away with a 72-65 road victory in Walsh Gym.

EARLIER MEETINGS THIS YEAR

Creighton won both games against Seton Hall during the 2023-24 regular season, but both were hotly contested. On Jan. 28 in Omaha, Azana Baines had a game-high 19 points to go with nine rebounds, but the Pirates couldn’t find their offensive footing late and fell to No. 21 Creighton, 57-49. The Pirates trailed by as many as 12 points in the third quarter, but battled back thanks to a 10-0 run. Both defenses clamped down in the fourth quarter with each team making only one field goal over the final 10 minutes. Creighton, however, went 8-for-12 from the free-throw line to hold off Seton Hall.

On Sunday, Baines had a game-high 23 points, but The Hall fell to No. 23 Creighton, 72-65, on Senior Day in Walsh Gymnasium. The Pirates led at the half, but an 11-0 third-quarter run by Creighton proved to be the difference-maker as The Hall couldn’t draw even afterward. Seton Hall was just 12-for-21 from the free-throw line which made its comeback attempts more difficult.

In two games this season, Baines has averaged 21.0 points and 9.0 rebounds per game. Creighton’s Morgan Maly has averaged 15 points and 10.5 rebounds per game against the Pirates.

SCOUTING CREIGHTON

The Bluejays enter Saturday’s contest as the No. 21-ranked team in the country having finished the regular season with a 24-4 overall record and a 15-3 mark in BIG EAST play. As the No. 2 seed, they earned a first-round bye. Creighton has won 14 of its last 15 games, with their lone loss coming at UConn on Feb. 19.

UP NEXT
With a victory, Seton Hall will advance to the BIG EAST Tournament semifinals and meet either No. 3 seed St. John’s or No. 6 seed Georgetown at 5:00 p.m. on Sunday. The game will be nationally televised on FS1 with John Fanta, Kim Adams and Meghan Caffrey on the call. Ryan Henry and Ryan Johnston will continue to carry the WSOU broadcasts.

2022-23 FINISH Lost in Big East quarterfinals.

By the time the game starts on Saturday night the team will know if they have a chance for third place.
In any event we want to see a solid and efficient effort. We probably won't see as intense of a defensive effort, but the team needs to get out of the gate and build a lead. The chance for a loss is not high but you have to respect your opponent.This is also a good opportunity for several players to build on their strong play from the Villanova. Certainly, Addae-Wusu had his best perimeter shooting game in a while. He actually played a good all around game.Now we need Coleman and EHE to build off their solid performances from the Nova game. Their contributions will be important over the next two weeks.Also, Richmond shot his three pointers with confidence and the best looking form we have seen in a really long time. If both he and Addae-Wusu shoot with that relaxed confidence, Seton Hall will be a tough out

Take care of business against DePaul, try to improve the NET. Then it should be SJU next Thursday afternoon orVillanova/Providence next Thursday night. Absolutely Amazing to be in this spot after the poor OOC games.
