Seton Hall's double-double machine Angel Delgado is back in the fold for one more run, as the standout forward announced Monday that he will withdraw from the NBA draft and return for his senior season.

"I'm coming back to school for my senior year," Delgado said on Twitter. "It's very important to my family and me that I finish what I started. This was a difficult decision that took time and patience. Coming back feels just right!"

Delgado was the top rebounder in the country last season, ripping down over 13 boards per contest for the Pirates. He also showed excellent low post skills on the offensive end, scoring 15.2 points per game as well.

Most analysts assumed the 6-foot-10, 240-pounder would be remaining in the draft, so the news of his return is certainly a welcomed surprise for the Seton Hall faithful.
