For the first time since the 2000-01 season, the Seton Hall men’s basketball team finds itself ranked at the start, sitting at No. 23 in the AP Top 25. It is a nice honor to kick off what looks to be a special year in South Orange, but there is still a lot of work to be done if the Pirates want to stay ranked and meet the expectations they have set for themselves.
This is the last chance for seniors Angel Delgado, Desi Rodriguez, Khadeen Carrington and Ismael Sanogo to leave their mark at the school they came to as freshmen back in 2014 with the hopes of bringing a once perennial contender back to national relevance.
