Midseason All-City 6 teams; Big 5 team grades; Villanova-St. John’s takeaways
New York TimesLet’s just say Wednesday was an off night for numerous Top 25 teams: East Carolina 82, No. After watching the replay of the game Thursday morning, it’s obvious they were exposed by an aggressive, fearless St. John’s squad that’s clearly playing its best basketball right now.
