Passing is key to women’s basketball’s offensive success

A change to the offensive theme of Seton Hall women’s basketball is imminent and the trend points to an offense focused in accumulating more assists.

Last season’s squad averaged 73.3 points per game, good enough for third in the Big East. However, the team has lost more than 55 of those points per game thanks to the departure of four starters. With so many scoring threats gone, the Pirates will have to prioritize finding the open shot.

The Hall mustered less than 12 assists per game last year, ranking eighth among Big East teams despite the its high scoring output.
