St. John’s Blows Out Shorthanded Butler, 76-63
St. John’s dominance on the boards lead to a blowout win over a shorthanded Butler team, 76-63.
Everyone is aware of the issues and flaws with this Red Storm team by now. However, a Cinderella run in the Big East Tournament would erase all of this season’s heartbreak. The Johnnies took the first step in the run today.
St. John’s Andre Curbelo is out due to being in concussion protocol and and Rafael Pinzon indefinite suspension continues. Butler’s Manny Bates and Eric Hunter Jr. didn’t suit up due to failing to meet academic standards.
