Sellout crowd sees Seton Hall routed by Villanova, 92-70 | Rapid reaction

NEWARK -- Duirng the first half against No. 2 Villanova on Saturday, it looked like Seton Hall might recapture the magic that led it past the Wildcats in the Big East Tournament title game last season.

The second half was much more reminiscent of the first time the two squads met this season -- a 30-point Seton Hall loss.

After a strong start and hanging tough with Villanova for the first 20 minutes, Seton Hall collapsed in the second half as the Wildcats rolled to a 92-70 victory in front of a sellout crowd at Prudential Center.
