The Seton Hall women’s basketball team dominated the Rider Broncs 85-49 in the opening game of the 2017 SHU Thanksgiving Classic this afternoon.
The Pirates were fresh off an eight-day break from their most recent contest, an 85-83 loss to Princeton back on Nov. 16, and that extra time for rest and preparation certainly paid off.
Seton Hall got off to a hot start in the first quarter, cruising to an 11-3 lead after just five minutes. That lead built up to double-digits with 2:55 left in the quarter, after a Selena Philoxy layup made it a 19-8 game.
