NEWARK, N.J. -- A quick turnaround awaits Monmouth and No. 23 Seton Hall on Sunday when they meet at the Prudential Center.
The two New Jersey schools will be playing their second game in three days after posting opening night wins on Friday. Seton Hall knocked off Fairleigh Dickinson 90-68, while Monmouth edged Bucknell 79-78.
Seton Hall has never lost to Monmouth in 12 meetings, including an 82-66 decision in 2013 -- the last time they squared off. The Pirates have dominated their New Jersey brethren, winning seven straight against teams from the Garden State after the FDU victory.
