The No. 10-seeded Arkansas Razorbacks upset No. 2 St. John’s, 75-66, in the round of 32 Saturday at the Dunkin’ Donuts Center in Providence, Rhode Island. 

In a clash between legendary coaches, John Calipari came out on top over Rick Pitino.

St. John’s is the first No. 2 seed to be eliminated from this year’s tournament. The Red Storm shot just 28% from the field and 2-22 from 3-point range.

Pitino benched Big East Player of Year RJ Luis Jr. late in the second half. Luis had nine points and seven rebounds but shot just 3-17 from the field. 

Zuby Ejiofor was the only player to shoot well for St. John’s, scoring 23 points on 7 of 12 shooting, while hauling in 12 rebounds. The only other player in double figures for St. John’s was Deivon Smith with 13.
