No. 9 St. John’s added one more game at Madison Square Garden to its schedule.
The Big East leaders announced Thursday that their home finale March 1 against Seton Hall would be moved from its campus in Queens to MSG.
Between Carnesecca Arena and MSG, St. John’s is a perfect 15-0 in home games this season.
The Red Storm (21-4, 12-2 Big East) are enjoying their best season in years under the guidance of coach Rick Pitino in his second year. Despite a two-point loss Wednesday at Villanova, St. John’s owns a one-game lead in the conference over No. 24 Creighton.
Creighton will meet St. John’s on Sunday afternoon at MSG to battle for first place. The Red Storm’s only other loss in Big East play was by one point at Creighton on New Year’s Eve.
A week and a half after St. John’s hosts Seton Hall, the teams will be back at MSG for the Big East tournament.
Seton Hall (6-18, 1-12) is in last place in the conference.
