The game took place at Walsh Gymnasium in South Orange, NJ, where 1,204 spectators witnessed a battle that included five lead changes and was tied once. Despite being on their home turf, the Pirates found themselves challenged by a determined North Texas squad.

The first half concluded with North Texas trailing by nine points after scoring 24 to Seton Hall's 33. In an attempt to turn things around in the second half, they managed to add another 34 points to their tally but ultimately could not close down the gap as Seton Hall extended their lead with an additional 39 points.

North Texas showcased resilience throughout the game. They recorded eight steals and one block defensively while contributing fourteen assists offensively. Their shooting from within the arc was less effective than usual at thirty-seven percent accuracy on thirty-eight attempts but they excelled at free throws making six out of seven for an impressive eighty-six percent completion rate.

Despite these efforts from two-point range and from free-throw line alike – including twenty-four hard-fought points in paint – overall field goal percentage stood at thirty-five percent for North Texas after sixty-three attempts which may have contributed significantly towards final outcome; meanwhile three-point shots were made with thirty-two percent accuracy (eight made out of twenty-five).

On rebounding front too there was much activity; North Texas grabbed a total of thirty-three rebounds - eighteen defensive and eleven offensive - adding four team rebounds into mix as well. They capitalized on turnovers by scoring eleven points off them despite having ten turnovers themselves.

Seton Hall’s performance was marked by higher efficiency in shooting with fifty percent from two-point range (nineteen out of thirty-eight) and forty-five percent beyond arc (nine out of twenty), culminating in forty-eight percent overall field goal success rate after fifty-eight attempts; this coupled with perfect free throw performance (seven out seven) certainly helped solidify their win over visiting team.

Furthermore, they dominated inside scoring thirty-four points in paint compared to twenty-four by visitors while also blocking more shots than them – seven blocks against one for Mean Green – indicating strong defensive presence under basket which might have been decisive factor during match-up between these two sides who fought valiantly until clock ran down showing zero-zero decimal time left on it signaling end of game proceedings without any further possibility for action or change result which had already been determined by then: victory belonged to Seton Hall Pirates this time around leaving fans wondering what might happen next when these teams meet again someday perhaps under different circumstances or stage altogether only future can tell us that story however what is certain is that next broadcast featuring University of North Texas will be eagerly awaited by its supporters hoping see their favorite team triumph soon enough!
