Riding the program's best start in 39 years, No. 20 St. John's regained sole possession of first place in the Big East by rallying past Xavier 79-71 in overtime.
For much of the past two decades, St. John’s basketball has struggled to reclaim its former glory. Halfway through the 2024-25 season, that's changing.
St. John's is 7-0 in 2025, making this the program's first unbeaten January in 40 years dating to its last Final Four season in 1985.
The Red Storm are 7-0 since the New Year and 9-1 in Big East play for the first time since the 1980s heyday under late Hall of Fame coach Lou Carnesecca.
Kadary Richmond and Zuby Ejiofor each scored 13 points as No. 15 St. John's rolled to a 66-41 victory at Georgetown. The Red Storm have won seven in a row, their longest run of consecutive wins in Big East play since 2000.
