No. 3 UConn, No. 22 St. John’s put Big East supremacy on line

From the outset of the season, UConn has resembled the team that won consecutive national titles in 2023 and 2024.

In the past month, St. John's has responded to a rough stretch by performing similarly to its 31-win team from last season but with a more potent offense.

As a result of the strong performances by both teams, someone will see a lengthy winning streak end when No. 3 UConn attempts to earn a 19th consecutive victory and No. 22 St. John's puts its eight-game winning streak on the line Friday night in New York.
