It was far from a typical weekend series. The power shut was shut off on Seton Hall’s campus for the Holy Thursday during the first game. Then the two teams played a doubleheader on Saturday to wrap up the series (Seton Hall doesn’t play on Good Friday or Easter).
But the result was typical. The No. 18 UConn Huskies won all three games against the Pirates for their second-straight sweep in conference play, and third of the season.
The power may not have been on, but both UConn and Seton Hall provided plenty of electric action. The Huskies narrowly escaped with a 7-6 win in the opening game of the series and won both games on Saturday, punctuating the sweep with a blowout.
