Providence and Seton Hall are playing a key bubble game in the Big East on Wednesday night as both teams aim for another solid win that can help them get in.

But the outcome of this one will have to wait.

The game was suspended with 13:03 left in the second half due to unsafe playing conditions on the court. Condensation was causing players to slip and it wasn’t safe to continue the game. The Dunkin’ Donuts Center had ice under the court that was melting onto the court due to unseasonably warm weather.

Seton Hall was winning 56-47 when the game was suspended. The game will be resumed on Thursday afternoon at noon at Alumni Hall in Mullaney Gym.
