St. John's take notice as Duane Notice leads the Gamecocks to victory over the Red Storm in Uncasville, Connecticut
St. John's closed out the non-conference portion of their schedule with a neutral site game in Uncasville, Connecticut against the undefeated, and newly ranked, South Carolina Gamecocks. It has not been the best of times for St. John's recently as the aftermath from their victory over Syracuse saw the Johnnies drop their next two games to Incarnate Word and NJIT. What was a two game losing streak is now three in a row, as the Johnnies fell to South Carolina by a score of 75 to 61.
