In a league season when home teams have not won at their usual pace, both home court squads picked up victories on Saturday while St. John’s stepped outside of conference play and lost at Duke.
Going into Sunday’s games, home teams held only a 25-20 (.556) edge in conference play with 20 of the 45 conference games decided by six points or less.
In the FOX All-Access Game where the respective head coaches, Butler’s LaVall Jordan and Seton Hall’s Kevin Willard, could be heard live throughout the game, Butler held on to beat Seton Hall 70-68 at Hinkle Fieldhouse.
