Saint John's University

Saint John's senior wing Seth Marx (Maple Grove, Minn./Benilde-St. Margaret's) broke out of a slump by shooting 71.4 percent (10-for-14) from the field, including an 8-for-9 showing from three-point range, and averaging 15.5 points and seven rebounds per game as SJU went 2-0 on the road last week.

He averaged 6.5 points and shot 25.7 percent (9-for-35) from the field, including an uncharacteristic 4-for-24 showing from behind the arc, in his previous four games.

Marx (159) needs three three-pointers to pass two former teammates, Andy Burns (160, 2008-12) and Chris Schwartz (161, 2007-11), for third on SJU's all-time list.

The SJU basketball team (13-10, 11-7 MIAC) clinched an MIAC Playoff berth last Saturday (Feb. 15) with a 74-67 win at Carleton and plays host to Concordia-Moorhead for Senior Night at 7:30 p.m. this Wednesday, Feb. 19, at Sexton Arena. The Johnnies have won eight of their last 10 games.
