The top and bottom of the BIG EAST are colliding and... well, something's brewing.
The Villanova Wildcats find themselves entrenched in a precarious position after the first half of play as they own just a slim, one-point lead over the lowly St. John's Red Storm who are searching for their first BIG EAST win and their first win in two months.
Big man Daniel Ochefu has been the standout for the Wildcats in the first half of play. Ochefu has dropped 10 points on 5-of-6 shooting and corralled four boards, a steal and a block with no turnovers.
