The St. John’s basketball team used a second half run to cruise to a Thanksgiving Day victory.

Seventeen hours after its thrilling opening night victory over St. Peter’s the St. John’s basketball program was back out on the floor for its final game in the Lapchick Tournament against La Salle.

Without two of its best player, Julian Champagnie (ankle) and Rasheem Dunn (chin), the Johnnies brought more energy than they had the night before, but the Red Storm still looked out of control in their attack.
