75–80Sweet Sixteen
About This Game
St. John's came to Washington with a clear strategy: attack from beyond the arc. The Red Storm launched three-pointers at a high volume, connecting on 13 of them to keep this Sweet 16 battle competitive throughout. Their discipline showed elsewhere too—just six turnovers and solid rebounding against a national championship contender. But Duke's inside game proved superior when it mattered most. The Blue Devils won the rebounding battle decisively, pulling 46 boards to St. John's' 28, and dominated the free-throw line by a margin that reflected the physical nature of the matchup: 15 made free throws to St. John's' four. Duke's balanced attack—25 two-pointers, five three-pointers, and those 15 free throws—added up to 80 points, just enough to hold off the Red Storm's three-point barrage. This was tournament basketball at its finest: two teams executing their systems, one gaining the slightest edge when it mattered. Every play, every rebound, every free throw is preserved on a custom Gameprint, capturing the complete narrative of Duke's Elite Eight advance.
