Following their bounce-back win over St. John’s on Super Bowl Sunday, the No. 24 UConn men’s basketball team is out for revenge as they welcome a tough Seton Hall squad to Gampel Pavilion Wednesday night. The Pirates defeated the Huskies 90-87 in overtime in UConn’s first game back from their COVID-19 pause, largely thanks to an otherworldly second half from sophomore Kadary Richmond.
Seton Hall has won three of their last four, with Villanova snapping their three-game win streak with a 73-67 win over the Pirates on Feb. 12. Prior to that, Seton Hall beat Georgetown by seven, handily defeated Creighton and squeaked by Xavier with a 73-71 win.
