St. John’s Releases Madison Square Garden Plan for 2025-26 Men’s Basketball Season

QUEENS, N.Y. – Ticket packages for all 2025-26 St. John's men's basketball home contests at Madison Square Garden are on sale now by calling the Red Storm Ticket Office at 1-888-GO-STORM or visiting RedStormTix.com.

Fans can see the Johnnies take on three non-conference opponents and several BIG EAST foes inside The World's Most Famous Arena. St. John's will play at least 11 games at Madison Square Garden this season where the reigning BIG EAST Champions posted a perfect 12-0 record in 2024-25 and currently hold the second longest active win streak at MSG in program history.

The Red Storm will make its MSG debut on Sat., Nov. 8 against Alabama, a program that also secured a No. 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament and advanced to the Elite Eight last year.

St. John's is slated to play 2025 NCAA Tournament participant Ole Miss on Sat. Dec. 6 in Midtown Manhattan. The Johnnies and Rebels will meet on the hardwood for the first time since 1989, when St. John's outlasted Ole Miss, 70-67, en route to a National Invitation Tournament (NIT) Championship.

The Johnnies will host Head Coach Rick Pitino's former team Iona on Sat., Dec. 13 at The World's Most Famous Arena. Separated by just 18 miles, St. John's and Iona will meet for the first time since 2017. Pitino spent three seasons leading the Gaels from 2020-23 and compiled a 64-22 (.720) record. He led Iona to two Metro Atlantic Athletic Conference (MAAC) championships and made a pair of trips to the NCAA Tournament.

The complete 2025-26 schedule will be announced in early September. Individual game tickets and mini plans for the general public will go on sale at a later date.

Led by 2024-25 National Coach of the Year in Pitino, the Red Storm is coming off a historic campaign where it tied a program record with 31 wins, captured the BIG EAST Regular Season and Tournament titles and advanced to the NCAA Tournament Second Round. The Johnnies loaded up for the 2025-26 campaign bringing in the No. 1 transfer portal class according to ESPN and 247Sports and return four players, highlighted by All-BIG EAST First Team selection Zuby Ejiofor.
