NEWARK, NJ (AP) -- Jeremy Hazell scored 28 points to lead four Seton Hall players in double figures in a 92-68 victory over Cornell on Sunday.
Thanks to a big surge early in the game, the Pirates (1-1) made easy work of the Big Red (1-1) in their home debut.
Seton Hall jumped out to a 24-point lead with 6:30 remaining after a 26-7 run gave the Pirates a 39-14 lead and Cornell never got within 14 points again.
Jeff Robinson scored 16 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, Herb Pope had 13 points and Jordan Theodore added 10 points, seven assists and seven rebounds.
Aaron Osgood led the Big Red with 19 points, getting to the free-throw line 16 times but hitting just half of his attempts. He didn't receive much help, though, as no teammate made it into double figures and Cornell dropped its first game after a season-opening win at Albany.
