St. John’s got Seton Hall in foul trouble early, but couldn’t capitalize after Andre Curbelo’s ejection.
The Wednesday-night matchup between St. John’s and Seton Hall tipped off at around 8:30 p.m. in Carnesecca Arena. At nearly 11 p.m., fans were just starting to leave the venue. A chippy contest between the two tri-state area teams led to one of the longest St. John’s Men’s Basketball games of the season, ending in a crushing 84-72 loss.
Tensions were running high all game as both teams — and the 4,977 fans in attendance — expressed their displeasure with the officiating.
