2/5/2017 5:04:00 PM | Women's Basketball
CHICAGO – The Seton Hall women's basketball team (11-3, 4-9 BIG EAST) fell in an 86-60 decision at No. 17 DePaul on Sunday afternoon at McGrath-Phillips Arena. With the setback, the Pirates dropped both ends of a two-game BIG EAST weekend road trip.
Kaela Hilaire (Floral Park, N.Y.) led three Pirates in double-figures in the setback, scoring 12 points along with a game-high seven assists. Also hitting double-digits for The Hall were Lubirdia Gordon (Mount Vernon, N.Y.) and JaQuan Jackson (Killeen, Texas) who each finished with 10. For DePaul, it was Brooke Schulte going for 22 points and 12 rebounds and Tanita Allen adding 19 points off the bench.
Turning Points
Down 12 after a quarter the Pirates showed some early fight, out-scoring DePaul 24-17 in the second period and ending the frame on an 11-4 run to cut the deficit to five at 39-34. Hilaire capped the late quarter run with a buzzer-beating lay-in as time expired in the opening half.
The Hall scored the first basket of the second half to pull within a possession, but the Blue Demons answered with a 15-2 run to swell the lead to 54-38 and force a timeout with 6:16 to play in the third. Overall, DePaul used a 29-14 edge in the third quarter to balloon their lead to 20 after three and put the contest out of reach.
