This afternoon’s St John’s-Providence game broke into chaos. Early in the second half, the Red Storm’s Bryce Hopkins went up for a layup on a fast break when the Friars’ Duncan Powell mauled him at the rim, throwing the latter to the floor. Hopkins immediately jumped and pushed Powell, sending the game into a frenzy.
Players and coaches from both sides exchanged shoves before officials separated the two sides, while police officers quickly came onto the court to prevent further escalation. In the aftermath, officials delayed the game roughly 20 minutes while reviewing the play and dolling out punishments.
Powell, who appeared to throw a punch at St John’s Dillon Mitchell after the hard foul, was ejected from the game. Providence’s Jaylin Sellers was also ejected. The Red Storm’s Mitchell, Kelvin Odih, Ruben Prey and Lefteris Liotopoulous were tossed for their roles in the brawl.

As usual, the Whites are trying to defuse and get slugged by a you know who. We went into the Frances Marion Bar to get a drink across from Marion Square during SEWE. 2nd half of an unwatchable UNC-Pitt BB game on. Beyond bad BB. It sucked.
