Conference rivalries kick off across the Big East on Friday night, with Seton Hall hitting the road for a meeting with Providence. The Pirates’ four tune-up games have yielded a mixed bag in terms of both results and statistical analysis, but the numbers on offer provide hints at what the team can accomplish under second-year head coach Andreas Lindberg.
Lindberg’s diverse squad – no fewer than 14 nationalities are represented on the 2019 roster – has produced 60 shots already, 20 of which hit the target and seven put the Pirates on the scoreboard. Averaging 15 shots per game is good for fourth in the conference through the early going.
