NEW YORK — When assessing his Seton Hall team’s chances in the Big East tournament, Shaheen Holloway, as is usually the case, did not mince words.
The Pirates’ head coach reiterated that his team had a propensity to make things difficult for itself, not liking to make situations easy. Therefore, Seton Hall would have to, in his own words, “go to New York and take it” if it were to win a conference championship for the first time in a decade.
Ten years to the day after Seton Hall tasted the ultimate success, it took the first step toward a second crowning moment.
