Pirates Announce Full Schedule for 2019-20

NEW YORK, N.Y. - The 2019-20 Seton Hall women's basketball schedule is now complete with the BIG EAST conference unveiling the 18-game conference slate. The schedule announcement from the league includes tip times and television information on the round-robin format and the full schedule.

"We've put together one of our most challenging schedules in recent memory," said Head Coach Anthony Bozzella. "Any time you can schedule a perennial national title contender like UConn, and teams like VCU and Princeton, who are consistent challengers for their conference titles, you're well-preparing your team for BIG EAST play."

The Pirates will be featured on national television four times during the conference schedule, playing two games on FS1 and two more on FS2. All games that do not air on TV will be available on the BIG EAST Digital Network presented by SoFi via Caffeine.tv and YouTube.

"We're thrilled to have four contests on national television this year as well," Bozzella added. "The exposure is excellent for our program's continued growth."

Seton Hall will open conference play on the road this season with a trip to the Midwest against Butler (Dec. 29) and Xavier on New Year's Eve. The Pirates will return home the following week for contests against Villanova (Jan. 3) and Georgetown (Jan. 5).

The Pirates head out to the central time zone the following week for a pair of monster road contests against last year's BIG EAST Tournament champion DePaul (Jan. 10) and last year's regular season BIG EAST champion Marquette (Jan. 12).

The Hall will then return to the friendly confines of Walsh Gym for a three-game home stand. The Pirates will face Creighton (Jan. 17), Providence (Jan. 19), and St. John's (Jan. 26), which will be shown on national television via FS1.

They will then return to the road for contests at Providence (Feb. 14), Creighton (Feb. 16) and St. John's (Feb. 21).

The Pirates conclude the regular season at home with Xavier (Feb. 28) and Butler (March 1) on Senior Day. The BIG EAST Championship will tip off on March 6 and run until March 9 at DePaul's Wintrust Arena. Conference tournament games will air on the BEDN, FS2 and FS1.

The BIG EAST Digital Network will provide coverage of 75 additional women's basketball conference games overall. BEDN launched in September 2014 as a streaming-only offering of 225 live regular season and championship events annually for the BIG EAST Conference. SoFi became the presenting sponsor of BEDN in 2017-18. Announced this fall, BEDN continued its relationship with Caffeine, a recently launched social broadcasting platform for live sports, gaming, and esports, as a distributor of Women's Basketball and Olympic sports championships and events. The BIG EAST has a dedicated channel on Caffeine, www.Caffeine.tv/BEDN, where fans can find all BEDN content. In addition to appearing on Caffeine, all BEDN events will be co-streamed on YouTube via the conference's main channel, www.youtube.com/BIGEASTConference, and Twitter on the main BIG EAST handle, @BIGEAST.
