A blown 19-point lead to Seton Hall.

A second half that was as abysmal as any St. John’s has played in recent memory.

The Johnnies’ sprint to flushing this once-promising season feels like it has hit the finish line with this ugly 68-62 setback at UBS Arena.

They have now lost eight of 10 and can all but forget about an at-large berth to the NCAA Tournament.

It got so bad the home crowd booed late in the second half and at the horn.
