South Orange, N.J. – The Seton Hall men's soccer team has announced its full schedule for the 2024 season. The Pirates will face a challenging slate of 17 fixtures consisting of nine non-conference opponents and eight BIG EAST foes.
The Pirates will face three teams that qualified for the NCAA Tournament last season, including in the season opener as Seton Hall will travel to Miami to face FIU on Thursday, Aug. 22. It will be the second all-time meeting between the two schools. The Panthers have reached the NCAA Tournament in three straight seasons and received a national seed in 2021 and 2022.
One week later, the Pirates open up their home schedule against UAlbany on Thursday, Aug. 29. Three days later, The Hall welcomes Manhattan to Owen T. Carroll Field on Sunday, Sept. 1 for a 1 p.m. kickoff. The homestand wraps up with a Friday night clash against Columbia on Sept. 6.
On Monday, Sept. 9, the Seton Hall-Rutgers rivalry will be renewed on the pitch for the first time in 15 years. The storied rivals have squared off 57 times in their program histories, but the series has remained dormant since the 2009 season. The match is set for a 7 p.m. kickoff in Piscataway.
The 2024 slate features four more non-conference matches, including home dates against Harvard (9/14) and Lehigh (9/24). The Pirates will also travel to Stony Brook (10/8) and Princeton (10/29).
BIG EAST play begins for Seton Hall on Friday, Sept. 20 up in Providence, R.I. as the Pirates face off against the Friars. The two sides met in the regular season finale last year, a game which saw The Hall tough out a 1-0 win to clinch a BIG EAST Tournament berth. The Pirates will also pay visits to UConn (9/28), Georgetown (10/19) and Xavier (10/26) in conference play.
The first BIG EAST home match of the season for the Pirates takes place on Friday, Oct. 4 when Marquette comes to South Orange. Other home matches against BIG EAST opponents for Seton Hall include Butler (10/12), St. John's (10/23) and Villanova (11/2).
Eight teams will qualify for the BIG EAST Tournament, the second year the conference has utilized the postseason format. The top team from each division will receive the top two seeds in the tournament, with the remaining six seeds determined by conference point total regardless of division. The BIG EAST quarterfinals will take place on Saturday, Nov. 9 at campus sites, while the semifinal and final will be held at Maryland SoccerPlex in Boyds, Md. on Nov. 14 and 17, respectively.
