Creighton loses Nembhard, wins at St. John’s, 81-78

On Wednesday, February 23rd, the Creighton Bluejays outlasted the St. John’s Red Storm, 81-78. This was a see-saw of a game in the first half, with Creighton up 10 at 13:05 left in the first half, and St. John’s up 9 with just about a minute left in the first half. The second half was quickly trimmed to a lead of just a few possessions for either side, with 7 total lead changes, and ended in a 3-point advantage for the Jays after Ryan Kalkbrenner defense forced a St. John’s miss and his ensuing foul shots extended the lead to 3.
