The undefeated run to start the season came to an end when the Seton Hall women’s basketball team was handed its first loss by the Georgia Bulldogs, 70-52, at the Stegeman Coliseum in Atlanta on Sunday.
The Pirates were undefeated through their first seven games, marking the longest stretch to start a season without a loss since 1989-90. In beating SHU, Georgia earned its first win against a ranked opponent this season.
Georgia was down at halftime, but wound up tightening its defensive play and propelling itself past the Pirates thanks to the senior tandem of Shacobia Barbee and Tiaria Griffin, who combined for 34 points and 15 rebounds.
