St. John’s Shocks the Nation, Snaps UConn’s 18-Game Win Streak in Stunning Big East Upset
In the first showdown of the year between the Big East’s top two teams, Dillon Mitchell added 15 points and Bryce Hopkins scored 14 for the Red Storm (18-5, 11-1), who have won nine straight and 14 of 16. They moved within a half-game of the first-place Huskies (22-2, 12-1) in the conference standings.
The victory also tied Pitino with Roy Williams for third place in Division I history with 903 career wins on the court.
When it was over, a pumped-up Ejiofor went over to the St. John’s student section to celebrate. The senior forward, the Big East preseason player of the year, also provided three blocks and two steals in a virtuoso performance.
