Also, screw NJ schools! There's a reason I didn't' even consider staying in-state!

Battle of Ward family alma maters.

Of course when my old man attended Seton Hall Raftery was still coaching and their biggest rival was St. Peter's.

THERE. Really, really excited. I've heard, however, that they're playing it at their 2600 seat on-campus site instead of at the Prudential Center where they normally play (in downtown Newark). Apparently the last time they played an NIT game there a bunch of years ago, they got 1800 and change so the decision was made to move it to campus. They played Stony Brook on campus tonight and reports indicate that this will be on campus as well, meaning it will be very tough to snag a ticket.

Guessing that the game will be at Walsh Gym in South Orange. Only open date at the Prudential Center in that window is Sunday.

All depends when it is, but I'll likely go.

I wonder if there's any chance of it being at The Rock (Prudential Center in Newark), but the schedule doesn't look favorable.
Thur night - Devils game
Fri night - concert
Sat afternoon - Devils game
Sat night - Nets game
Sun - open
Mon night - Nets game

Looks like it'll be at SHU's on campus venue: Walsh Gym in South Orange.

Walsh only seats 2600, smaller even than Fordham's Rose Hill.

You're 1 day off.

Fri- concert
Sat- Devils afternoon, Nets night
Sun- Open
Mon- Nets
Tue- WWE

Walsh Gym is an old building cage-type gym that a huge sports and rec center was built around with their 1980's-1990's Big East and Final Four $$. There's a large parking garage next door.

In for a NJ game, be it Walsh or the Rock.
