The Seton Hall men’s basketball team defeated the Troy Trojans 78-69 on Thursday night at the Prudential Center.
In the first meeting between the Pirates and the Trojans, the Blue and White got off to a hot start. SHU went on an 11-0 run over the course of the first three minutes to jump out to an early 11-2 lead at the first media timeout with 15:40 remaining in the half. The Hall’s run was highlighted by a Khadeen Carrington steal that led to a Desi Rodriguez slam on the other end.
From there, the Pirates struggled—just as they have all season coming out of the first media break.
