PROMOTIONS
LAST GAME
Graduate student Kaydan Lawson (Cleveland, Ohio) scored a season-high 11 points, but the Seton Hall women’s basketball team fell at Creighton, 72-56, snapping its three-game win streak on Wednesday.
Seton Hall didn’t have an answer for Creighton’s long-distance shooting. The Bluejays entered the game averaging 9.4 made three-pointers per game, and finished tonight’s contest 16-for-40. Their 40 attempted three-pointers are the most by any BIG EAST team this season… by six. Creighton made only eight trifectas in the teams’ first meeting in Walsh Gym on Jan. 11.
The loss snaps a three-game winning streak for The Hall and drops it to 16-6 overall and 8-3 in BIG EAST play.
Lawson had 11 points, the most she’s had in a Seton Hall uniform, to go with five rebounds and two assists. Sophomore Savannah Catalon (Mansfield, Texas) had 11 points, three rebounds and a team-best three steals. Freshman Jada Eads (Orlando, Fla.) saw her double-digit scoring streak snapped at 15 games. She finished with eight points, five rebounds and three assists.
