Wofford vs Seton Hall 3/21/19 - College Basketball Picks & Predictions

The No. 7 seeded Wofford Terriers will play the No. 10 seeded Seton Hall Pirates on Thursday in an NCAA Tournament Midwest Region first round tilt. The Terriers reached the tournament thanks to a 70-58 win over UNC Greensboro in the Southern Conference tournament championship for an automatic berth to the Big Dance. Nathan Hoover and Fletcher Magee led the Terriers with 20 points each.

Seton Hall had an impressive showing in the Big East season-ending tournament losing in the finals to Villanova 74-72 to earn its No. 10 seed. The Pirates played very well in the title game loss and had their leading scorer Myles Powell get off a tightly contested 3-pointer that would have one the game but missed. Fletcher Magee leads Wofford in scoring with an average of 20.5 points per game. Two other players are averaging double figures in scoring, including Cameron Jackson who is second in scoring and first in rebounding with averages of 14.6 points and 7.5 rebounds per game. Wofford is shooting 49.4% from the field and 42.0% from 3-point territory.

Myles Powell leads Seton Hall in scoring with an average of 22.9 points per game. Sandro Mamukelashvili is leader on the team in rebounding with an average 7.8 per game. Quincy McKnight leads Seton Hall in assists with an average of 4.0 per game. Seton Hall is shooting 44.4% from the field and 32.5% from 3-point territory.

Wofford has not lost outright since December 19 winning 20 straight, but has not faced the tough competition Seton Hall has faced in the Big East. The Pirates are 7-4 SU and 8-3 ATS in their last 11 games. With the ball bouncing their way one or two times more against versus Villanova, Seton Hall could have easily won the Big East tournament. Final Score Prediction, Seton Hall Pirates win and cover ATS 71-69.
