A late push down the stretch from St. John's was not enough to punch their ticket to the 2024 NCAA Tournament as the committee snubbed them on Sunday evening.
St. John’s forward Zuby Ejiofor dunks against UConn during the first half of an NCAA college basketball game in the semifinals of the Big East men’s tournament Friday, March 15, 2024, in New York. A late push down the stretch from St. John’s was not enough to punch their ticket to the 2024 NCAA Tournament as the committee snubbed them on Sunday evening.“First and foremost, we have great respect for the National Invitation Tournament and St. John’s storied history in the event,” said Pitino.
The Red Storm ultimately could not claw out of a difficult stretch in late January into February, which was headlined by the squandering of a 19-point lead in a loss to Seton Hall, which was their eighth in 10 games to fall to 14-12 on the season. Following a postgame tirade by head coach Rick Pitino, the Johnnies won five straight to end the regular season before defeating Seton Hall 91-72 in the first round of the Big East Tournament which appeared to be enough to get into the Big Dance.St. John’s fell to UConn 95-90 in a thrilling semifinal, which was the first time since 2000 that the Queens-based school played in that stage of the conference tournament. They finished the season 20-13.
