St. John's looks for rare victory over Xavier

With their recent winning streaks ended in their most recent games, Xavier and St. John's look to start new winning streaks Tuesday night when they meet in a Big East basketball matchup in Queens, N.Y.

The visiting Musketeers (11-3 overall, 4-3 in Big East) had their three-game winning streak come to an end at home Saturday in an 80-72 loss to Connecticut. That game was Xavier's first since Jan. 30 and just its second game since Jan. 10 due to COVID protocols.

Sophomore Zach Freemantle had career highs of 30 points and 15 rebounds in the loss to UConn, when Paul Scruggs logged a career high 12 assists.
