Dawes also connected on four 3-pointers, improving his team's record to 30-14 all-time when he knocks down three or more triples.

Both games will be broadcast on the Seton Hall Pirates Basketball Radio Network on the SHU Pirates Mobile App, SHUPirates.com, Varsity Network, SiriusXM and the SiriusXM app.
