While wearing some 1989 Bruce Springsteen-inspired throwback jerseys, the Seton Hall men’s basketball team successfully recaptured some of its glory on Saturday against Wichita State. SHU won 80-76 in OT as time slipped away from the resilient Shockers.
Desi Rodriguez broke out for a team-high 18 points while adding four boards while his high school teammate Isaiah Whitehead ended up with 17 and five. Derrick Gordon excelled defensively on Wichita State’s star backcourt while slashing to the cup for eight total points.
It was a complete team effort against an opponent that has turned the college basketball world on its head in recent years.
