NEWARK, N.J. -- Isaiah Whitehead had 18 points and nine assists and Seton Hall edged DePaul 78-74 on Saturday for the Pirates' seventh consecutive victory.
Leading 76-73 after Khadeen Carrington's basket with 1:26 to go, the Pirates (12-2, 2-0 Big East) missed four free throws.

Whitehead was fouled and made two from the line to end the game.
Seton Hall's Angel Delgado turned in his seventh straight double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds.
