It was the latest tip in the country on New Year’s Eve. It was an easy game to forget and overlook and the St. John’s basketball team wanted to leave its sloppy play in 2025.
After Georgetown shot 48.5-percent from the field and 45.5-percent from 3-point range in the first half, the Johnnies buckled down in the second half and cruised to a 95-83 victory.
The charge was led by Zuby Ejiofor, who said everyone on the team needed to look in the mirror following its second half collapse against Kentucky. The St. John’s captain did his part by finishing with 25 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists.
