Game thread: St. John’s vs Saint Peter’s

The team looked solid last time out against Wagner, but there are always aspects of the game to tweak.

Today, we would like to see a solid performance from Mustapha Heron, more of the range of involvement from David Caraher, and maybe some nice moments from Damien Sears in the paint. Rasheem Dunn, as well, could use to tighten up his play, and the whole team can become sharper on the defensive end.
