In a narrow victory of 57-56, Coach Joe Tartamella and his squad finished the job as tough as it started.
The Johnnies come off a road trip to Seton Hall that ended in an overtime loss, and a road trip to DePaul that featured a double overtime win, and a historic performance from senior guard Unique Drake.
