Things Are Looking Up

[NYC Pirate]

Excellent win by the Pirates tonight. That's a true road win in front of 18000 or so and a sign
of a good team. Three really solid conference road wins already.

Seton Hall has put themselves in a realistic position to finish 4th or 5th in the conference and
a 20 win season. Now they have to take care of business at home. Still a lot of work to do, but
several winnable games remaining on the schedule along with a trip to MSG.

This next game against Marquette will be tough. The players must show maturity this season
and cannot allow this opportunity to slip away.

Among other things, that was a display of some stiffling defense tonight. One of the distinctive strengths of of Final Four team was their smothering defense. Such a joy to finally have that back again.

I couldn't even begin to hand out plaudits for tonight's effort on both ends of the court. It's great to be a Pirate fan tonight, Frank
