Title: [JohnnyJungle.com] Calm Before the Storm: Soaring Storm?
Post by: Dave Krupinski on February 23, 2010, 01:34:46 PM
The Red Storm hope to continue their spoiler ways and hopefully, cobble together enough wins to see a postseason berth.

Is it possible? Sure.

Is it feasible? Ask after the upcoming stretch of games against the better teams in the league, Marquette, Pittsburgh, and Syracuse.

St. John’s favorably has the Golden Eagles and Panthers at home, and have already faced the Pittsburgh squad. But unlike the recent opponents, these teams have tended to execute well this year. Marquette, in particular, has mastered the close loss – against Florida State, against NC State, at West Virginia, against Villanova twice by a total of 4 points, against Syracuse by 5… and against DePaul by 1. The Golden Eagles may not be traditional, and they may not be able to knock off teams at the top of the conference, but they have won enough to likely secure themselves a spot in the Round of 64....

It’s senior day, finally, for Anthony Mason Jr, who has endured a tough road to stay on the court. Here’s hoping for a little Carnesecca magic for the boys. If the Red Storm are really a better team, they need to show it with a win over the Eagles at Carnesecca.

From the Soaring Storm:

Prediction: I’ll get one of these right. Marquette 67, St. John’s 61.

Let's hope he's right.
