Seton Hall needed the score and stop it just got at the end of the half there. Spotting St. John’s a double-digit deficit going into the locker room would have ended up having worse effects when amplified by the crowd.
After 20, the Pirates are down eight, 38-30. #shbb #HALLin
Sha’s challenge is successful. He gets a timeout back and a challenge he can save for later. #shbb #HALLin
Gaffney is going #ToTheMonitor after Sha called for a challenge on an out of bounds call.
Just my eyes here, but it looked it went out off Tajuan Simpkins, which is exactly how Potter called it at first blush. #shbb #HALLin
I'm ready for more heartbreak #HALLIN
Seton Hall has rebounded from spotting St. John’s an 8-0 head start, going on a 7-2 run to get within three through the first 4:54, trailing the Johnnies, 10-7.
Mike Williams is sparking the Pirates early with five points, much like Elijah Fisher did yesterday. #shbb #HALLin
St. John’s is getting whatever it wants inside, and Sha wants a timeout with 2:54 gone.
Seton Hall has as many points as we do, down 8-0. #sjubb #shbb #HALLin

From high atop Madison Square Garden, I bring you game #83.
It’s Seton Hall and Creighton in the second quarterfinal, with the winner to meet St. John’s tomorrow. I’m doing a broadcast demo of this one with @jguerette.bsky.social. #shbb #HALLin #GoJays
Seton Hall head coach Shaheen Holloway says in his award acceptance speech that Zuby Ejiofor embodies the Big East conference and he’s a big fan of his.
Sha jokes “Zuby, I’m glad you’re out of the league.”

#MUBB / #HALLin
Shaheen Holloway on the Prudential Center atmosphere: "The crowd was great. Think there were too many St. John's fans."
#SJUBB #HALLin
Red Storm shot 65% from the field in the 2nd half, and Seton Hall just could not keep up with that. They came close many times to equalizing or taking the lead with Ejiofor on the bench and just could not get over the hump. Kind of a metaphor for the season. #shbb #HALLin
Clark, AJSM, and Hines were all in double figures. Pirates turned 14 offensive rebounds into 20 second-chance points. But the Red Storm hit seven threes (five in the 2nd half) and Seton Hall went just 1-11. Staton-McCray with a tough 1-7 night individually. #shbb #HALLin
FINAL: St. John's 72, Seton Hall 65. Spirited effort by the Hall, but not enough shot-making from deep to beat a really, really good Red Storm team. Couldn't take advantage of the long stretches without Ejiofor on the floor. More to come. #shbb #HALLin
AJSM hits their first three of the whole game to make it a 3-point game with 45 seconds left. But Ejiofor is fouled on the other end. #shbb #HALLin
Darling becomes the second STJ player tonight to fall down and lose a shoe. 64-56 Red Storm as Pitino uses his final timeout with 2:05 to play. #shbb #HALLin
Dagger 3 by Sellers. Timeout Sha, becomes the u-4. 62-51 and St. John's is pulling away. Red Storm were 2-13 in the 1st half from 3. 5-8 in the 2nd half, making the Pirates pay dearly for not making hay when Ejiofor was out. #shbb #HALLin
Seton Hall leads in 2nd chance points by 10, and aren't turning it over a lot, but when they do, they've been burned. 12 STJ points off 9 SHU turnovers after another three by Sellers. Timeout Sha. 55-49 with 7:23 to play. Becomes the u-8. #shbb #HALLin
Pirates continuing to hustle themselves back in the game. Pitino calls another timeout to get Ejiofor back in with the lead cut to 50-49 and 9:28 on the clock. Pirates have also played the last few minutes without Clark OR Hines. #shbb #HALLin
Refs miss a pretty obvious travel on Darling, and it leads to a foul and free throws for St. John's. Not the first time tonight. But Rasheed Wallace in the building. 2 misses there. #shbb #HALLin
