BC is coming off a 2025 season in which it finished with a 28-29 record. The Eagles held a 11-19 tally in ACC play.

Seton Hall finished its 2025 season by going 24-30 and 10-11 in the Big East.

The pitching matchup will feature BC's A.J. Colarusso and Seton Hall's Steven Svenson, the Big East Preseason Pitcher of the Year.

The Eagles will look to start off the new campaign with a win.
