PREVIEW
Seton Hall will return to action this week with a pair of BIG EAST Conference on the road. The Pirates will head to Providence on Friday, Oct. 9 at 5:00 p.m., and then Connecticut on Saturday, Oct. 10 at 4:00 p.m.

MEDIA
Both matches this week will be streamed live on ESPN+ and have live stats.

SCOUTING PROVIDENCE
Seton Hall and Providence will resume their long rivalry on Friday in Alumni Hall. The Pirates own a 25-20 all-time series lead, but the Friars swept the home-and-home series last year winning a pair of five-set marathons.

Providence was picked to finish 10^th in 11-team BIG EAST, according to the preseason coaches' poll.

Providence enters the weekend with an 8-7 overall record and an 0-4 mark in BIG EAST play. The Friars were an impressive 8-3 in non-conference play, but have dropped all four of their conference contests so far, collecting just one set win combined in losses to DePaul, Marquette, Villanova and Georgetown. Most recently, they fell in Washington, D.C. in four sets. Providence has one of the better defensive front lines in the BIG EAST, leading the conference in blocks per set and ranking second in opponent hitting percentage.

SCOUTING CONNECTICUT
Seton Hall and Connecticut will meet for the 41^st time in history on Saturday with the Huskies owning a 24-16 all-time series lead. UConn has won four of the last five meetings including a pair of victories in last year's meetings. The Pirates took the Huskies to four sets in Storrs, but were swept at home.

Connecticut was picked to finish seventh in 11-team BIG EAST, according to the preseason coaches' poll.

UConn enters the weekend with a 7-10 overall record and an 0-4 mark in conference play. Like Providence, the Huskies have struggled since beginning BIG EAST play, having won only one set in its first four conference matchups. Most recently, Connecticut was swept by Villanova on Saturday. Connecticut leads the BIG EAST in service aces per set, but ranks last in digs per set.

NEXT WEEK
Next week, the Pirates will return to historic Walsh Gymnasium for a pair of BIG EAST Conference contests. The Hall will host DePaul on Friday, Oct. 16, before welcoming Marquette on Saturday, Oct. 17. Both matches are 5:00 p.m. starts.
