Year Two of the Chris Mullin Era at St. John’s was so much more enjoyable in Queens than Year One.
First off, there was the six-game improvement in wins for the Johnnies in BIG EAST play after a forgettable one-win campaign in Mullin’s maiden voyage. But reasons two and three were even more promising for St. John’s future prospects - the arrival of fab freshmen guards Shamorie Ponds and Marcus LoVett.
And if last season was just a taste of what St. John’s fans can expect from the two unanimous BIG EAST All-Freshman Team picks, the future, indeed, looks bright for the Red Storm as the pair are back for their second go-round in the BIG EAST.
