At this time last year, Joel Soriano was getting benched, and his first season at St. John’s couldn’t have started worse.
A year later, he has become an invaluable part of the program, and one of the most improved players in recent memory.
After a long summer of getting into the best shape of his life, Soriano has performed like an elite player early this season. He has given the Red Storm a new dimension as a post-up threat, and on Saturday he pounded Niagara inside, producing 21 points and 19 rebounds. Perhaps most importantly, Soriano has taken a major step forward on the glass. He already has three games this season with at least 14 boards. Soriano helped St.
St. John’s held a nine-point lead at the break, mostly on the strength of their transition game. The Red Storm had 15 fast-break points, the result of 10 forced turnovers that made up for their poor 3-point shooting and loose 3-point shooting defense that allowed Niagara to go 6-for-11 from beyond the arc. Soriano continued to perform well, with 13 points and eight rebounds in the first 20 minutes against the smallish Purple Eagles. St. John’s didn’t close out the half well, though.
