Second half surge lifts St. John’s over Scott
The Scott Bulldogs arrived at the St. John’s Jesuit Titan dome a mission. Solid defensive pressure from Mario Peters, Jaali Peterson, Hezekiah Ray and Romel Hightower propelled the Bulldogs to a 27-23 halftime lead over the Titans. St. John’s adjustments coming out of the break proved too much for Scott as they outscored them 23-7 in the third quarter and rolled to a 58-45 win. Junior CJ Hornbeak led the Titans with 33.
