Seton Hall raised over $10,000 for Puerto Rico hurricane relief in a charity exhibition game against La Salle University Thursday night. All net proceeds from the game will be donated to “United for Puerto Rico,” a hurricane relief fund.

As fans donated to the cause with the purchase of their ticket and made up a 1,140-person crowd, they saw Seton Hall defeat La Salle 87-74 in Walsh Gymnasium.

“I got a phenomenal email from someone this afternoon saying how proud he was of both universities for doing this, and how much Puerto Rico needs help,” coach Kevin Willard said after the game.
