Seton Hall, still in the stages of finalizing its 2006-07 schedule, will play in Madison Square Garden Dec. 21 against Virginia Tech in the front end of a doubleheader. Duke and Gonzaga will play in the nightcap.

The Hall, under first-year coach Bobby Gonzalez, will also play in-state foes St. Peter’s (Nov. 27), Monmouth (Dec. 4) and Princeton (Jan. 29) at the Meadowlands. The date with the Ivy League Tigers is the first since 1988.

The complete schedule will be released in the next few days.
