Tavana Named To United Soccer Coaches Third Team All-East Region

Kansas City, Mo. -- Senior midfielder Natalie Tavana (Middletown, Conn.) has received another well-deserved honor for her stellar junior season as she was named Third Team All-East Region by the United Soccer Coaches.

Tavana becomes just the fifth all-region selection in program history and the first since Ashley Clarke's second team selection in 2013.

At the end of the regular season, Tavana was named a unanimous All-BIG EAST First Team pick and she became the first Pirate to be named BIG EAST Offensive Player of the Year since SHU Athletics Hall of Famer Kelly Smith won the award in 1999. The league's awards and all-conference teams were voted on by the BIG EAST's head coaches. Coaches cannot vote for their own players.

Tavana's conference honors capped off a historic season that hasn't been seen in South Orange in roughly 20 years. She finished as the BIG EAST's goal scoring champion, pacing the conference with 12 goals overall and five goals in conference play. Her 26 points (12 goals, two assists) ranked second in the BIG EAST.

Tavana was a constant threat on offense all year, tallying 3.00 shots per game, the third-highest mark in the league. Her individual performances included the first hat trick for Seton Hall since 2006, and a three-game goal streak from Sept. 24 to Oct. 1. With her efforts this season the Pirates were able to collect their most points in the BIG EAST standings since 2011.

In the Seton Hall record books, Tavana's 12 goals and 26 points are the most in a single season since Smith's 1999 campaign when she registered a whopping 27 goals and 62 points, both program records. Tavana is the first Pirate to be named All-BIG EAST first team in 10 years when Ashley Clarke was named to the league's top team in 2013

LAST GAME
Graduate student Azana Baines (Blackwood, N.J.) had a team-best 16 points, but the Seton Hall women's basketball team couldn't overcome a slow start and fell to No. 8 USC, 64-54, at the Baha Mar Hoops Pink Flamingo Championship on Monday.

The Pirates outscored the Women of Troy for the final three quarters, but were doomed by an 18-3 deficit to start the game. The Hall connected on just one of its first 12 shots from the field and had to play catch-up for the reminder of the game.

Baines had a team-high 16 point on 7-for19 shooting, including 2-for-5 from three-point range. She also had six rebounds, two assists and two steals. Sophomore Micah Gray (Oklahoma City, Okla.) collected 14 points on the strength of four made three-pointers. Senior Amari Wright (Jacksonville, Fla.) found herself in foul trouble early, but still managed to dish out a match-high six assists.

Prior Meetings:
Seton Hall 75, East Carolina 51 (F) – December 1, 1995 (Walsh Gym)

ECU welcomes six newcomers in a class stocked with talent, including Khia Miller a top 100 recruit according to ESPN's Hoopgurlz rankings (No. 94).

East Carolina enters its contest with Seton Hall with a 2-2 record overall. They opened the season with blowout wins over Elon and USC Upstate, but fell, 55-50, at VCU on Nov. 14. Most recently, ECU lost to No. 15 Ohio State in the Bahamas, 79-55. McNeal leads the team with 17.0 points per game. Joyner is averaging 13.5 points and a team-best 8.8 rebounds per contest.
