Men's Basketball Set for Friday Night Matchup at Seton Hall

SOUTH ORANGE, N.J. — The Wagner College men's basketball team continues its 2025 non-conference schedule on Friday, November 7, with a matchup at Seton Hall. Tip-off is set for 7:30 p.m. at Walsh Gymnasium. The game will air live on ESPN+ with Jon Yardley and Vin Parise on the call.

Friday's contest marks the 37th all-time meeting between the programs, with Seton Hall holding a 30–6 advantage. The Pirates defeated Wagner 54–28 last season and have won the last 16 matchups. Wagner's last win over Seton Hall came in 1979.

Seton Hall (1–0, 0–0 Big East) opened its season with a 77–50 home victory against Saint Peter's. Fourth-year head coach Shaheen Holloway enters Friday's game seeking his 50th win at the helm of the program. The Pirates welcomed 11 additions to their roster this season, including 10 transfers.

Wagner (0–1, 0–0 NEC) continues its seven-game road swing after dropping its opener at VCU, 103–74. Graduate student Sam Smith led the Seahawks with 16 points off the bench on 6-of-10 shooting, including 2-of-4 from three-point range. Junior Huascar Cuevas added 13 points on a perfect 3-for-3 from beyond the arc, while redshirt-senior Jaden Baker chipped in 11 points and four assists.

Following the matchup with the Pirates, the Green & White will travel to the Bronx to face Fordham on Tuesday, November 11, at Rose Hill Gym for a 7:00 p.m. tip.
