St. John's, Fresh Off a Win Over Villanova, Prepares to Take on Xavier in a Big East Showdown

Xavier Musketeers, after suffering their worst loss in 51 years to UConn, are set to host St. John's in a Big East matchup.
St. John's Red Storm, coming off a 20-point win over Villanova, has had a full week to prepare for the game against Xavier.
Xavier's Dayvion McKnight and Quincy Olivari are key players to watch, with McKnight scoring 18 points in the last game and Olivari leading the team with an average of 17.8 points per game.
Joel Soriano, leading St. John's in scoring (16.4 ppg) and rebounds (9.7 rpg), is a critical player for the Red Storm.
Both teams have had a challenging season, with Xavier playing one of the toughest schedules in the country and St. John's losing three Big East games by a total of seven points before their win over Villanova.
