Led by Joel Soriano's 21 points, the St. John's Red Storm defeated the Villanova Wildcats 70-50JANUARY 25 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Abnormally quiet in lopsided loss Soriano closed with six points (3-8 FG, 0-2 FT), four rebounds and one block in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 80-65 loss to Seton Hall.
Impact Soriano may have been the victim of a flu that has been sweeping through St. John's locker room, although he carried no illness designation pregame and has yet to be publicly ill. Soriano entered Tuesday's contest averaging 15.2 points, 8.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.2 steals and 1.0 blocks while shooting 58.5 percent in 31.0 minutes per game over his last six contests. A critical matchup comes Saturday against Marquette, where Soriano's size should be an advantage for the Red Storm despite a serious matchup foe in Osasere Ighodaro coming to town.
