Senior Day at Madison Square Garden for St. John’s did not go the way that Chris Mullin and his squad had hoped it would as the Providence friars would overpower the Red Storm in the regular season finale 86-75.
St. John’s returned to Madison Square Garden where they had won its last three contests. During the win streak at “The World’s Most Famous Arena,” the Johnnies averaged 83.3 points led by Shamorie Ponds 19.7 points per game. That offensive prowess was nowhere to be found today in their regular season finale.
Ponds was named BIG EAST Freshman of the Week Monday for a league-leading fifth time this season.
