2024-25 WBB Non-Conference Schedule
SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - The Seton Hall women' basketball team released its official 2024-25 non-conference schedule on Thursday. The slate features 11 opponents, including six that qualified for the 2024 postseason, and eight games in historic Walsh Gymnasium.
Season ticket renewals begin Aug. 5! Those interested in renewing can do so by calling the Seton Hall Ticket Office at 973-275-HALL (4255). New season tickets are only $75 and can be purchased beginning Sept. 3.
"We're really excited about the opportunity to play this schedule, which features eight home games and a number of challenging opponents," said Head Coach Anthony Bozzella. "We have the best fans in America and we can't wait to see them in Walsh Gym on Nov. 7."
Seton Hall will open the 2024-25 campaign against Wagner on Thursday, Nov. 7 at Walsh Gymnasium. The Pirates are 10-2 in 12 all-time meetings and have won six straight in the series. Their last meeting was a 70-62 victory in South Orange on Dec. 21, 2021. The Seahawks are coming off a 7-21 season in 2023-24, which includes a 4-12 mark in Northeast Conference (NEC) play.
The Hall will return to action when it hosts Fordham on Tuesday, Nov. 12 at Walsh Gym. The Pirates are 8-5 all-time against the Rams and have won eight of the last 10 meetings including a 78-72 victory in the Bronx in 2022. Fordham went 13-17 last season with an 8-10 mark in the Atlantic 10.
On Saturday, Nov. 16, the Pirates will host Bryant University in Walsh Gymnasium. The Hall trounced the Bulldogs in their only two prior meetings, including a 73-45 victory on Nov. 12 of last season. Bryant went 15-15 overall last season, including an 8-8 mark in America East Conference play.
The Hall will head to Cincinnati for its only true road game of the non-conference portion of its schedule on Monday, Nov. 18. The Pirates will face the Bearcats for the first time since they left the BIG EAST Conference at the conclusion of the 2012-13 season. The Hall is 3-1 all-time at Fifth Third Arena. Cincinnati is coming off a 14-18 mark and a first-round loss in the WNIT last season.
The long-time rivalry between Seton Hall and Princeton will be renewed on Thursday, Nov. 21 in Walsh Gym. It'll be the ninth time in the last 10 seasons that the two New Jersey foes have faced off. Although the Pirates own a 13-9 all-time series lead, the Tigers have won five of the last seven games, including an epic 75-71 double-overtime victory in Princeton last season. The Tigers went 25-5 last season and claimed their fifth-straight Ivy League championship. They fell to West Virginia in the opening round of the NCAA Tournament.
For the third time in the last four seasons, The Hall will face national-power USC on Wednesday, Nov. 27 as part of the Acrisure Holiday Invitational in Palm Springs, Calif. The Hall has never defeated the Trojans in four all-time meetings and dropped the opening game of the Baha Mar Pink Flamingo Championship, 64-54, to them last year in the Bahamas. Led by superstar freshman JuJu Watkins, USC went 29-6 during the 2023-24 season, won the Pac-12 Championship and advanced to the NCAA Elite 8 before falling to Connecticut. This game will be nationally televised on truTV. Family and friends interested in attending can enjoy a 25% discount on tickets.
The Pirates will return to Walsh Gym on Monday, Dec. 2 to host San Francisco in Walsh Gym. These teams have played only twice, splitting the games, but haven't squared off since the 2004 season. The Dons went 14-16 last season with a 10-6 mark in West Coast Conference games.
Seton Hall will host Howard University on Friday, Dec. 6. The Hall is 3-1 in four all-time contests, but lost its most recent game against the Bison, a 63-44 setback prior to the Bozzella era on Dec. 28, 2011. Howard finished the 2023-24 season with a 15-16 record. The Bison nearly punched their ticket to the NCAA Tournament, but lost by five points to top-seeded Norfolk State in the MEAC Tournament final.
Another chapter in the epic battle for "SHU" supremacy will commence on Monday, Dec. 9 when the Pirates host Sacred Heart. Seton Hall has never lost to the Pioneers in four all-time meetings and most recently routed them, 95-69, on Nov. 6, 2019. Sacred Heart is coming off a tremendous season which featured a 24-10 final record, an NEC Championship and a third-straight NCAA Tournament appearance.
On Saturday, Dec. 14, the Pirates will host Le Moyne College in the first-ever meeting between the schools. The Dolphins are coming off a solid season, which included an 18-15 final record, a 14-2 mark in NEC play and a first-round loss to Niagara in the WNIT.
Finally, Seton Hall will close out the non-conference portion of its schedule with national-power LSU as part of the Basketball Hall of Fame Women's Showcase at Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn. on Tuesday, Dec. 17.
