On Saturday, Georgetown will travel to New York to face St. John’s (8-6-2, 1-4-2 Big East) in its last road game of the regular season.
St. John’s is 7-2 in non-conference play but hasn’t fared as well in the Big East. A loss to Georgetown will eliminate the Red Storm from contention for a spot in the Big East tournament, and likely from NCAA College Cup consideration as well. The game is a must-win for the St. John’s, so Georgetown knows that it cannot take the matchup lightly.
The Hoyas will likely need to win its two remaining games in order to clinch at least a share of the Big East title. Georgetown and St. John’s last met in the first round of the Big East tournament last year, where Georgetown won 2-1.
