Keys:
Contain Kadary – Kadary Richmond has been the engine that has made Seton Hall go against the Hoyas. Richmond has averaged 12 points, 6.5 rebounds and 8.5 assists in the two games.
Keep Pirates off the free throw line – Seton Hall went to the line 19 times in the first game and 17 times in the second game. The Hoyas aren’t efficient on defense so keeping their opponent off the free throw line especially when the two teams are so evenly matched.
K-Gun – Kaiden Rice has to find his early season magic. He was 5-8 when the two teams last met but in the five games prior, Rice was 3-32 from long distance.
