This afternoon, St. John’s gets back after a weeklong layoff to take on the Sacred Heart Pioneers. The Pioneers should not be a fearsome threat.
But with the Johnnies a nine-man squad and still working out their style of play... and with basketball the kind of game that punishes bad shooting afternoons, no game is a given.
Additionally, Marcus LoVett is out for the contest; more information on if it’s a long-term issue or not to come.
Marcus LoVett has a sprained left knee. Didn’t practice this week. Doesn’t appear to be serious.
