The field is narrowing in this year’s March Madness, and St. John’s Red Storm has emerged as one of the major stories of the weekend. With a narrow 67–65 victory over Kansas, the Red Storm advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time since 1999—marking a significant milestone for the program. A prominent Catholic institution, St. John’s carries its Vincentian tradition of community and excellence onto the national stage. Father Richard Rock, who serves as the school’s athletic chaplain, joins to discuss how excited the team is about this tournament and what it is like for him to travel with them. He also shares how important faith is to the team and how he provides spiritual guidance while on the road.
