Sophomore guard Federico Mussini, who came from Italy to play at St. John’s, will be leaving the program after two seasons. Reports in late May indicated that his youth club, Reggio Emilia, wanted him to return to play for their senior club. Mussini was back in New York this week, but will return to Italy to play. “I believe I am ready to take the next step in my career and play professionally back in Europe,” Mussini said in a press release.

“It was an honor to wear a St. John’s jersey for the last two years,” said Mussini in a press release. “This was an incredible experience for me to be a part of such a great university in New York City. I want to thank Coach Mullin and the entire coaching staff for everything I learned from them. I also want to thank all the St. John’s fans for their support at Carnesecca Arena and Madison Square Garden.”
