SHU, DePaul to face off again on Friday
© Joey Khan PhotographySeton Hall’s women’s basketball team will look to settle a score when the Pirates travel to Chicago, Ill. for a rematch with DePaul on Friday, Jan. 29.
The two Big East goliaths last squared off on Jan. 5, when the Blue Demons took a trip to South Orange. The showdown was one of national significance, as DePaul was the No. 24 team in the Associated Press Top-25 Poll at the time while Seton Hall was No. 25. DePaul won the game, 86-74, but a gritty effort and packed Walsh Gymnasium helped the Pirates cut a 32-point deficit to as little as seven.
It was SHU’s first and only home loss of the year.
