SETON HALL PIRATES MEN'S BASKETBALL
PROGRAM OVERVIEW
Seton Hall basketball operates from South Orange, New Jersey, where the Jesuits have fielded competitive programs since the university's 1856 founding among its 9,529 enrolled students. Head coach Shaheen Holloway has constructed a roster of 15 players that's produced an 18-8 overall record while averaging 71.7 points per game, holding opponents to 65.0 PPG this season. The Pirates perform at the 19,500-seat Prudential Center in nearby Newark, a NBA-caliber venue that provides recruiting advantages across the Big East Conference.
Holloway's squad has demonstrated considerable home-court strength, posting an 11-3 record at the Prudential Center compared to their 7-5 road performance. Their conference record stands at 8-5 within a Big East that consistently ranks among college basketball's toughest leagues. Seton Hall's scoring defense—allowing just 65.0 PPG—suggests Holloway emphasizes the defensive principles that carried his teams during his prior head-coaching tenure at St. Peter's, where he led the Peacocks to the 2023 Elite Eight with that famously low-seeded roster.
