Introduction to the Big East Tournament
The final game of the Big East Tournament will be a showdown between the No. 1 and No. 2 seeds.
The St. John’s Red Storm, who finished the regular season atop the conference, rebounded in a big way during yesterday’s semifinal against Marquette. Down 15 points early in the game, the Johnnies closed the points gap by halftime and won 79-63.

The No. 1 seed will face Creighton University, the No. 2 seed, in tonight’s final. Creighton punched their ticket to the final with a 71-62 win over the two-time defending NCAA champs, UConn. The game ended with a fiery scene when Creighton wing Jamiya Neal went for a big dunk instead of running the clock out; UConn guard Hassan Diarra rushed up to Neal, shoving him in the chest and exchanging heated words.
The NCAA Tournament is just around the corner and the Johnnies are already in, but the outcome of this game will determine seeding. Here’s how to tune into this pivotal final Big East game of the year.
