SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. - The Seton Hall volleyball team finished its BIG EAST season at 7-7 and will now head into the conference championship after falling to Notre Dame on Sunday, 3-0 (25-23, 25-20, 25-17). The Pirates (13-17, 7-7) honored seniors Megan Murison (Woodridge, Ill.) and Sarah Osmun (Crystal Lake, Ill.) in a pre-match ceremony.
Seton Hall will be the No. 7 seed and face No. 2 seed Louisville at 3:30 p.m. on Friday in Pittsburgh, Pa.
Osmun led the Hall with 10 kills, while junior Meghan Matusiak (Winfield, Ill.) brought her career total to 999 kills by picking up nine. Freshman Alyssa Warren (Joliet, Ill.) led all players with 17 digs.
Kristen Dealy paced the Fighting Irish (17-11, 10-4) with 20 kills.
The Pirates led 20-17 late in set one before Notre Dame ran off three straight to even up the score. A block by junior Krissy Wrobel (Reading, Pa.) put the Hall back up, but a 4-1 Irish spurt followed to help the visitors to the opening set win.
Set was tied at five before Notre Dame gradually pulled away, and the Fighting Irish led the third set from wire-to-wire.
Notre Dame hit .267 for the day while holding Seton Hall to a .183 clip. The Irish also edged the Pirates in digs, 50-48.
