The last two seasons, the Seton Hall men’s basketball team has made its mark on the Big East as a force to be reckoned with, defined by the team’s overwhelming physicality and relentlessness on defense. However, as the midpoint of the Big East schedule approaches, the Pirates are struggling to recapture their mojo from the previous season and sit at just 3-5 in conference play.
Leading into play against Xavier on Feb. 1, this year’s Pirate squad is giving up 69.5 points per game, up from last year’s mark of 67.8.
