Just nine days out of St. John’s Men’s Basketball’s season-opener against Fordham, the Red Storm picked up its second straight exhibition victory in a 64-46 win over Towson. The 12 p.m. matchup at Carnesecca Arena benefitted Autism Speaks, the largest autism research organization nationwide.

Head coach Rick Pitino’s preseason announcement that this year’s roster will utilize “multiple starting lineups” proved true for the matchup with the Tigers. Deivon Smith, Jaiden Glover, Brady Dunlap, Aaron Scott and Vince Iwuchukwu were the Storm’s first five, a decision that proved to be a successful one.
