St. John's Continues Dominance of Georgetown
St. John's set a Big East program record with 15 three-pointers and improved to 2-0 in conference play, fueled by Zuby Ejiofor's 25 points and 10 rebounds.
- On Wednesday, St. John's Red Storm defeated Georgetown Hoyas 95-83 at Capital One Arena, Washington, D.C., pulling away in the second half to secure a Big East Conference victory.
- After a disappointing non-conference slate, a defensive 'switch' was needed, prompting role changes before the matchup, as Pitino suggested adjustments.
- The Red Storm's outside shooting exploded as Zuby Ejiofor scored 25 points, grabbed 10 rebounds, and St. John's hit a program-high 15 three-pointers total.
- The win bolsters the Red Storm's bid to defend Big East titles as St. John's ends 10 straight New Year's Eve defeats since 2008, entering 2026 having won five of six games.
- The tactical adjustments produced turnovers and open shots as coaches said feeding Zuby Ejiofor freed shooters, while Bryce Hopkins, who transferred from Providence, sparked a press forcing four first-half turnovers.
