Myles Powell scored 18 of his 24 points in the second half and No. 10 Seton Hall overcame a nine-point deficit to win its 10th in a row, 64-57 over visiting DePaul in Big East play on Wednesday night at Newark, N.J.

Powell scored nine straight points to lift the Pirates (16-4, 8-0 Big East) from a 51-49 hole to give them a 58-51 lead with 4:31 left in the game. Powell, who moved into fourth on Seton Hall's career scoring list, shot 2 of 10 in the first half and finished 7 of 21 for Seton Hall, which has won 10 straight for the first time since 1992-93.

Charlie Moore scored 14 and Jalen Coleman-Lands added 10 for DePaul (13-8, 1-7), which has lost three straight, but didn't always play like a team that's last in the conference. The Blue Demons held Seton Hall to 38.6 percent shooting and 6 of 27 from 3-point range, but committed 20 turnovers and shot 33.3 percent overall.

The Pirates prevailed despite shooting 14 of 29 from the free-throw line and committing 20 turnovers of their own.

Up one at halftime and leading 31-30 early in the second half, DePaul used an 8-0 run to go up 39-30 with 16:14 to play. Back-to-back 3-pointers by Coleman-Lands and Moore gave the Blue Demons that nine-point edge, and they maintained the edge at 41-32 after a layup by Paul Reed.

Seton Hall got within 41-40 thanks to its own 8-0 run, but four straight points from reserve Darious Hall pushed DePaul's lead to five before the hosts began to rally.

Seton Hall used an 8-0 run to lead 17-6 with roughly 11 minutes left in the first half, but scored 11 points the rest of the way and trailed 29-28 at the break.

DePaul missed 11 of its first 13 shots, but chiseled into the deficit by going 10 of 12 from the free-throw line and forcing eight turnovers in the first half.

Moore's layup with 40 seconds left in the first half gave DePaul its first lead since 2-0, at 28-26.
