Joel Soriano, the Big East’s Most Improved Player and the team’s MVP, is sticking with the Johnnies rather than enter the transfer portal for his final year of eligibility.
“He showed me his passion, his energy for the game. He told me he’s not going to put me in any position I don’t deserve,” Soriano said, referring to Pitino. “It’s going to be hard, but it’s going to be one of the greatest years of my life.Shortly after St. John’s season ended in a Big East Tournament quarterfinal heartbreaker to Marquette, Soriano said he would only return to St. John’s if Mike Anderson were the coach.
An All-Big East second-team selection, Soriano averaged team-highs of 15.2 points, 11.9 rebounds and 1.4 blocks while shooting a robust 56.3 percent from the field.
