STJ Basketball Double Header at MSG

          On Sunday, January 15, St. John's spent the day at the Madison Square Garden for a Double Header Basketball Game. After going a full week without basketball games to play for, I was so ready to join my Pep Band buddies and root for our teams. First, the men's team faced their rivals from Georgetown University, a game which unfortunately ended in a loss for STJ of 69-49. The women's team didn't have much better luck with Marquette; they lost that game, 63-55. Even though our teams weren't able to enjoy wins, there was still plenty for St. John's fans to celebrate, as our Mock Trial team was brought to the court and honored for their recent achievements, and Shenneika Smith from the Women's Basketball team was recognized for making her 1,000 point milestone at the January 4th game.
