Seton Hall, Villanova Set for Round 1

There is no hype needed for Saturday’s mega BIG EAST matchup. The one that has front-running Seton Hall and its 9-1 conference mark, travelling south down the turnpike to take on 7-3 Villanova, the usual ruler of the BIG EAST roost but currently sitting in second place.

Seton Hall wunderkind Myles Powell, one of the nation’s top players, going up against the undisputed kings of the BIG EAST since the conference reformed. A Wildcats outfit which owns a pair of national titles over the past four seasons.

Big deal? Yeah, you could say that, which is why if you’re not one of the lucky 20,000 or so who will be packing the Wells Fargo Center for Saturday’s 2:30 p.
