St. John's has lost Eugeneia McPherson for the season with a torn ACL in her right knee.

The senior guard injured the knee early in the second half of the 17th-ranked Red Storm's 66-54 win over Hartford last Sunday. McPherson scored six points and four rebounds before going down while driving to the basket.

McPherson started all 34 games last season and was the team's third-highest scorer. She's averaging 7.6 points this season.

The Red Storm (4-1) face Boston University on the road Saturday afternoon.
