SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. -- Looking to snap a three-game skid, the Seton Hall women's basketball team (8-7, 1-3 BIG EAST) is back at Walsh Gym on Tuesday night to host Marquette (12-4, 3-2 BIG EAST) for BIG EAST action. The contest is set to tip at 7 p.m. on the BIG EAST Digital Network via the FOX Sports GO app with Jon Schaeffer, Dave Popkin and John Fanta on the call.

The Pirates are closing a brief two-game home-stand after falling to No. 21 DePaul on Sunday afternoon. Marquette is also coming off a setback after a road loss at St. John's on Sunday. The contest will serve as a rematch of the BIG EAST Quarterfinals in each of the last two conference tournaments, with both postseason meetings going to The Hall.
