Both clubs are desperate for a victory and are neck-and-neck in the Big East standings. The Pirates head to Providence with a 9-8 overall record (6-5 in the Big East). They have lost four of their last five games, a stretch that includes their current three game losing streak. Don’t be fooled however, this is a competitive Seton Hall group.
Their current three game losing streak includes a pair of losses to Villanova (including a two point loss in Philly) and a heartbreaker to Creighton in which the Pirates let a 16 point second half lead slip away.
