NEW YORK -- Creighton center Ryan Kalkbrenner avoided a serious injury to his right foot on Sunday, but coach Greg McDermott said the 24th-ranked Bluejays' leading scorer should expect some lingering soreness.
With 9:45 remaining in the second half of Creighton's 79-73 loss to No. 9 St. John's, Kalkbrenner jostled with Zuby Ejiofor and RJ Luis Jr. for position to get a defensive rebound after a missed 3-point try. He appeared to collide with Luis, fell to the floor and was holding the top of his right foot.
