Defense sparks women’s hot start

They say defense wins championships, and it did play a huge role in the Seton Hall women’s basketball team taking home the Big East regular season championship last season. It has been an even bigger reason why the Pirates are enjoying such a great start this year.

The Pirates are off to their best start since the 1989-90 season when they won their first seven games before stumbling against Georgia on the road. The team is 7-1 this season, with the first loss also coming to the Bulldogs on Sunday. Heading into Wednesday’s game against Fordham the Hall has allowed opponents to score just 56.
