St. John’s basketball team picked up its first Big East victory of the season while getting revenge on Georgetown.

One week ago it was the most crushing loss of the season for the St. John’s basketball team.

The Johnnies (6-4, 1-3 Big East) had Georgetown (3-4, 1-2 Big East) right where they wanted them on multiple occasions and could not get the job done to leave the nation’s capital with a victory.
