Rick Pitino guides St. John’s over son’s Xavier squad

Dylan Darling hit a go-ahead 3-pointer with 53.2 seconds remaing and finished with 11 points off the bench to lead Rick Pitino and his St. John's team to an 88-83 win over son Richard and Xavier on Saturday in Cincinnati.

St. John's had to rally from 16 points down in the second half to give Rick Pitino his 900th career win as a college coach, the fourth coach in Division I history to reach the plateau. It was the second time in as many games that St. John's wiped out a double-digit second half lead to post the win.
