Saint John's University

Saint John’s junior wing Seth Marx (Maple Grove, Minn./Benilde-St. Margaret’s) averaged 17.3 points and 7.7 rebounds per game while shooting 58.6 percent (17-for-29) from the floor (.600 from three-point range, 12-for-20) as SJU went 1-2 on the road to open conference play.

He tallied 10 points in the 75-59 loss at Hamline Nov. 28 before leading SJU with career highs in points (32) and three-pointers (8) in the 69-65 win at Gustavus Adolphus Dec. 1. He finished 9-for-13 from the floor, eight of 11 from three-point range, and 6-for-6 from the free-throw line with nine rebounds and two blocks. Marx drained two free throws with nine seconds left to seal the win, which was just the Johnnies' third in their last 13 trips to St. Peter.

Marx tallied his second career double-double with 11 rebounds and 10 points, all of which was scored in the second half, in the 66-65 loss at Carleton Dec. 3. SJU erased an 18-point deficit but could not hold on to a late two-point lead.

The Johnnies (1-4, 1-2 MIAC) end their string of four consecutive road games by hosting Macalester for a 7:30 p.m. tip-off Wednesday, Dec. 5, at Sexton Arena in Collegeville.
