NEWS & NOTES

The Pirates are riding a five-match shutout streak, their longest in program history.
Seton Hall has conceded just one goal through six matches this season, coming in the 21^st minute of the season opener against FDU on Aug. 16. The Pirates' shutout streak currently sits at 519:45.
Seton Hall is also off to a six-game unbeaten streak to open the season for the first time ever.
The Pirates rattled off four consecutive wins to open the campaign for the first time since starting 5-0 in 2012.
The five goals scored at New Haven on Aug. 30 are the most scored in a match by the Pirates since scoring six against Iona on Sept. 9, 2021. The 5-0 margin of victory is the largest for Seton Hall since defeating Villanova by the same score on Oct. 20, 2013.
Gianna Angelillo has picked up right where she left off after her 2025 season ended prematurely due to injury. Her three goals and eight points through six games both lead the club.
UConn transfer Kileigh Gorman is tied with Angelillo with three goals on the season.
Josh Osit enters his fifth season at the helm of the Seton Hall women's soccer program.
Osit and the Pirates welcome back 15 members of last year's squad, including leading goal-scorer Gianna Angelillo.
Angelillo found the back of the net six times in her first season in South Orange after transferring in from Louisville before an injury cut her season short in early October.
Nina Davis also returns for the Pirates off an injury, having appeared in 27 matches over her first two seasons in South Orange.
Seton Hall welcomes in 11 newcomers to the 2026 squad, comprising of seven transfers and four freshmen.

Sabrina Campbell (Temple), Gianna Delgado (Rutgers) Kaylin Mallon (Kentucky), Tuva Norell (Saint Peter's) and Shaina Sackett (Rutgers-Newark) also transferred to The Hall ahead of this season.
As one set of twins graduated out of the program last season in Grace and Sarah Mitchell, a new pair of twins joins the Pirates starting this fall.
Lydia and Nicole Proia each hail from Natick High School in Natick, Mass. where they each had decorated careers.
Lydia scored 37 goals and doled out 43 assists over her four years, while Nicole scored 51 goals and was a 2025 United Soccer Coaches High School All-American.
