Following extensive and exhaustive testing of the St. John’s basketball program’s Tier One personnel, it has been concluded that testing and lab irregularities were the reason for the Red Storm’s last-minute postponement of Saturday’s game against DePaul.

Following that determination, team doctors and University health officials have agreed that the program may resume full operations.

“While the decision to postpone Saturday’s game was a tough one, we remain confident that we made the right choice,” said athletic director Mike Cragg. “To be sure, we are equally relieved and thrilled that follow-up testing has delivered good news and that we’re set to resume our schedule.”

St. John’s will resume play on Wednesday at Xavier. Tip-off is schedule for 8 p.m. on CBS Sports Network.

“Our kids and our fans have been tremendous in their patience and understanding of this obviously sensitive issue,” said coach Mike Anderson. “We can’t wait to get back on the court and continue with the season.”
