The Pirates can get comfortable in the newly renovated Walsh Gymnasium as six of their nine non-conference games will be played there.
Mount St. Mary will be the first opponent of the 2021-2022 season on Nov. 9, as they recently completed a 17-win season with an NEC title and NCAA tournament appearance. Fordham and Lehigh will make their own appearances at Walsh Gymnasium on Nov. 13 and 16, respectively.
Following their three-game stint at home, the Hall will head south to Mexico to participate in the 2021 Cancun Challenge. Seton Hall will face Iowa on Nov. 25 for the program's first-ever game on Thanksgiving. The Hawkeyes were able to piece things together last year, going 20-10 and flying to the NCAA Sweet Sixteen. Seton Hall close out the Cancun Challenge with a game against Toledo on Nov. 26, who they last played and lost to during the 2018-19 season in the WNIT.
Seton Hall's first game back in South Orange will be against Iona on Dec. 1, who they have never lost to in 15 all-time meetings. Seton Hall heads cross-state on Dec. 11 to face Princeton. Princeton’s last full season resulted in a 26-1 record and 14-0 at home, one of which came against the Hall in 2019.
Non-conference play will conclude with two more games at the Walsh Gymnasium, with the first coming against another NCAA Tournament team in UCF on Dec. 14. Seton Hall's final non-conference home game of the season will be against Wagner, who they beat 96-53 last season, on Dec. 21.
