Creighton spoils Seton Hall’s push for an at-large bid in Big East Tournament Quarterfinal thriller

Senior guard Temi Carda scored 23 of her career-high 29 points after halftime as Creighton rallied from 12-point deficit in the third quarter to upset #3 seed Seton Hall, 83-76, in the quarterfinals of the Big East Tournament on Saturday night at the Mohegan Sun in Uncasville, Connecticut.

One night after tying her career-high with 26 points in a 56-42 win over Georgetown, the 5-foot-9 combo guard was saddled with two fouls and held to just six points on 2-for-8 shooting in the first half against the Pirates. The second half was a much different story, however, as Carda went 7-for-7 from the field and 8-for-8 from the free throw line in the second half to spearhead the come-from-behind win.
