In our latest installment of “Getting to Know,” we check in with one of the BIG EAST’s – and the country’s - top freshmen, St. John’s Shamorie Ponds. The 6-1 guard with the silky smooth lefty shot, who helped lead his Thomas Jefferson High School team to its first New York City Public School city title since 1954 last spring, fills us in on what other BIG EAST teams came courting him during the recruiting process, where St. John’s rated in his mind during recruiting, and why he thinks he has so much more to show on the court this season, his adjustment from high school to the grind of the BIG EAST season and how the Brooklyn native plans on helping his coach Chris Mullin off the court.
