DePaul vs. Seton Hall: Big East Basketball Showdown Set for Wednesday

DePaul and Seton Hall will face off in a Big East basketball matchup on Wednesday at 6:30 p.m. ET at the Prudential Center in Newark, New Jersey. Both teams are looking to rebound from recent losses, with DePaul coming off a 100-56 defeat to Villanova and Seton Hall suffering a 94-72 loss to Xavier.

DePaul, currently 9-6, has struggled against Seton Hall in recent years, losing eight of their last 10 matchups. However, the Blue Demons have shown offensive prowess this season, averaging 77.7 points per game. Seton Hall, with a 5-9 record, has been less consistent, averaging just 61.6 points per game.

Seton Hall’s Isaiah Coleman had a standout performance in their last game, scoring 19 points, grabbing five rebounds, and recording two steals. Despite his efforts, the Pirates have lost five consecutive games, marking their worst stretch since March 2024.
