No. 25 Seton Hall men’s basketball trailed for 32 of 40 minutes on Thursday, trailing by as many as 13 points, but in the end, showed its resiliency as it prevailed over No. 25 Creighton 90-84 in the team’s Big East opener.
Each team experienced one of its star guards check out early in the first half. First, it was Khadeen Carrington, who went to the locker room just minutes into the game with a twisted ankle but returned shortly after. Next, it was Creighton guard Marcus Foster, who hobbled off the court with the help of two trainers with the Bluejays up 11-6 and did not return until several minutes later.
