St. John’s Shocks the Nation, Snaps UConn’s 18-Game Win Streak in Stunning Big East Upset

St. John’s Shocks the Nation, Snaps UConn’s 18-Game Win Streak in Stunning Big East Upset

St. John’s reeled off a 10-0 spurt, capped by a 3 from Hopkins, to open a 55-45 lead with 13 minutes remaining. After trailing by 11, the Huskies responded quickly and cut it to 64-63 on a 3-pointer by Demary with 5:35 left.

But the Johnnies maintained their slim lead until a step-back 3 by Dylan Darling and a basket inside from Ejiofor made it 74-67 with 2:25 to play. UConn never got closer than four the rest of the way, and Mitchell’s acrobatic tip-in helped the Red Storm hang on.
