Shaheen Holloway was nearly washed away Thursday night -- as the coach was drenched in his locker room -- moments after his Seton Hall men's basketball team stormed back from 7 down late to secure the NIT championship!
It was awesome!
#1 seeded SHU defeated fellow #1 seeded Indiana State in the NIT title game on Thursday ... in front of a mostly hostile crowd at Hinkle Fieldhouse in Indianapolis. The game was tied at 39 at the half and remained close throughout.
Despite being up 7 late in the second half, Seton Hall mounted a comeback, taking the lead, and then surviving as Indiana State jacked up several potential game-winning threes.
