No Ponds?
No problem.
St. John’s used the power of overtime to get over the hump against Butler. When in doubt, if you fail to win in regulation, just keep extending the game until you find a way to win which is what St. John’s did in a paraphrased sense, but thankfully there is more to this recap than a paraphrased recap.
Yes, St. John’s won tonight in a thrilling yet slow burning double overtime game against Butler by a score of 75 to 68 without the exploits of Shamorie Ponds - their high flying high scoring point guard - to lead the way as he was sidelined with an abdominal strain.
