After wrapping up non-conference play with a share of the Big 5 title, things will ramp up for the Villanova Wildcats, as they finally begin conference play.
The Wildcats’ (6-5) four-game winning streak will be put to the test when they welcome St. John’s.
The Red Storm (11-1) is off to its best start since Mark Anderson took over in the 2019-20 season. Its lone loss came from Iowa State (who Villanova fell to in overtime), a 71-60 result back on Dec. 4. St. John’s responded with three-straight wins, a stretch that included a win over DePaul in their only other Big East game so far.
