NOTES YOU NEED TO KNOW

The Seton Hall men's basketball team will hop on a plane for the final time this season as it heads to Milwaukee to take on Marquette at 9 p.m. on Tuesday.
The Pirates are coming off arguably its most significant win of the season as they defeated two-time defending national champion UConn, 69-68, in overtime on Saturday at Prudential Center.
The win was Seton Hall's fourth consecutive win against UConn at Prudential Center.
The Pirates came back from a seven-point deficit with 45 seconds left in regulation to force overtime and a five point deficit to with just over a minute left in the extra session.
Seton Hall improved to 3-0 on the season in overtime games and head coach Shaheen Holloway moved to 10-3 all-time in overtime games as a head coach.
The Pirates, who had been hit with the injury bug for most of the conference season, saw the return of Scotty Middleton and Dylan Addae-Wusu against UConn on Saturday.
Addae-Wusu scored the game-tying three-point field goal in regulation and Middleton scored the game-winning bucket off his own missed layup in overtime.
In eight BIG EAST games this season, Addae-Wusu is averaging 12.4 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game.
Jenkins (knee), who has led the Pirates in scoring six times this season and The Hall is 4-2 in those games, has missed seven straight games.
Isaiah Coleman was named to the BIG EAST Weekly Honor Roll for the third time this season on Monday after scoring a game-high 23 points and grabbing eight rebounds in the win over UConn.
Coleman is one of the top scorers in the BIG EAST in conference play where he ranks fifth in scoring averaging 17.7 points per game.
He also ranks 10th in league in rebounding averaging 6.3 boards per contest.
Coleman, St. John's RJ Luis, Jr., Xavier's Zach Freemantle, Georgetown's Micah Peavy and Creighton's Ryan Kalkbrenner are the only BIG EAST players to rank in the top 10 in scoring and rebounding in league play.
Coleman posted his second double-double of the season and his career at Georgetown on Feb. 8 where he scored 21 points and grabbed 10 boards.
Coleman has scored in double-figures in 14 of his last 17 games and seven of those outputs were 20-point performances against BIG EAST teams.
Also coming into his own is freshman center Godswill Erheriene who registered his first career double-double (10 points, 12 rebounds) in the win over the Huskies.
Erheriene is averaging 10.0 points, 8.5 rebounds and 32.6 minutes over the last two games.

According to KenPom, the Pirates rank eighth in Div. I in bench minutes (43.1 pct.).
Seton Hall ranks fourth in the BIG EAST in bench scoring averaging 21.2 points per game.
Saturday's win over the Huskies was a return to form game defensively for the Pirates as they held UConn to a season-worst 37 percent from the field and just 68 points in 45 minutes.
Addae-Wusu trails only Creighton's Ryan Kalkbrenner for the most career BIG EAST games played among active players with 85.
The Pirates are 14-25 all-time against Marquette and they're 12-14 against the Golden Eagles since the BIG EAST's reconfiguration in 2013-14.
