Seton Hall's plane ride back to New Jersey this week probably wasn't needed. The Pirates, ranked No. 18, could have floated home after a victory Wednesday at No. 5 Butler.

The Pirates (13-4, 5-0) will not have much time to celebrate. They can continue their march up the national rankings with another victory Saturday afternoon against St. John's in a Big East Conference game at New York's Madison Square Garden.

On a seven-game winning streak, Seton Hall is the only unbeaten team in the conference. And they justified their return into the rankings this week as Myles Powell scored a game-high 29 points, while Romaro Gill scored 15 of his 17 points in the second half at Butler.
