SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Jim Boeheim just stared at the Carrier Dome court that bears his name. Another game was slipping away from his Syracuse Orange and he was out of answers.
Jeremy Hazell led a long-range Seton Hall barrage with 28 points and the suddenly hot-shooting Pirates stunned No. 9 Syracuse 90-68 on Tuesday night, the Orange’s third straight loss.
“We have not played well the last three games,” Boeheim said. “I think when you lose a couple of games, you lose a little confidence.”
