A schedule change has become official for the St. John’s basketball program.
What was expected has become official as the St. John’s basketball program (4-1) announced it will open its 2020-21 Big East Conference schedule against the Seton Hall Pirates (2-3).
The Johnnies were slated to travel to Connecticut to face UConn on Friday night while Seton Hall was scheduled to host DePaul on Friday afternoon.
UConn announced on Sunday that it would be going into another pause due to COVID-19 and DePaul, who has not played yet this season because of complications with the pandemic, had a setback on Sunday prior to its scheduled game against Iowa State.
