NEW YORK (AP) — It’s been a long time since St. John’s enjoyed this much success, and energized fans are starting to feel it.
“We want UConn! We want UConn!” a few chanted during the waning seconds on Tuesday night as the 12th-ranked Red Storm polished off a 70-64 victory over No. 11 Marquette in their Big East showdown at Madison Square Garden.
It was a rousing start to a measuring-stick week for Hall of Fame coach Rick Pitino’s streaking team, which maintained sole possession of first place in the conference and improved to 1-1 against ranked opponents this season.
