St. John’s basketball sees another schedule change, will face Marquette.
Hours prior to its matchup against the DePaul Blue Demons (3-6, 1-6 Big East), the St. John’s basketball program learned that it would not face the Connecticut Huskies (8-3, 5-3 Big East) on Sunday afternoon in Queens.
UConn announced that a referee that officiated its matchup against Butler on Tuesday night had tested positive for COVID-19 and the team would be entering a short quarantine as a result of contact tracing.
Butler (5-8, 4-6 Big East) will not pause following the positive test, rather it’s game against Xavier (10-2, 3-2 Big East) has been moved from Friday to Saturday.
