St. John’s held a 10-point lead with 6:36 left in the game. But a few missed shots and a couple of turnovers and the Jayhawks were right back in the game. Kansas star Darryn Peterson made two free throws with 13 seconds left to tie the game.

Melvin Council Jr. had 15 points and Flory Bidunga had 12 points.
