Coming off one of its worst offensive performances of the season, No. 22 North Carolina State rediscovered its scoring touch in a 92-62 rout of Boston College in Chestnut Hill, Mass., on Saturday afternoon.

Jarkel Joiner scored 26 points on 10-of-17 shooting to lead the Wolfpack (20-6, 10-5 Atlantic Coast Conference), who were coming off a 63-50 setback at No. 8 Virginia on Tuesday night. He made five 3-pointers and added six rebounds, six assists and five steals.

The Wolfpack shot 55.2 percent from the field (37 of 67) and had a huge edge in 3-point field goals. NC State sank 15 of 30 attempts from behind the arc, compared to just 4-for-14 shooting by Boston College.

Quinten Post led Boston College (12-14, 6-9) with 20 points on 9-of-11 shooting. He has scored at least 20 points in five of his last seven games.

Jaeden Zackery added 10 points for the Eagles, who failed to score in the final 3:50 of the game and finished with 17 turnovers.

NC State shot 57.6 percent from the field in the first half (19 for 33) and led 44-32 at halftime.

The Wolfpack have won nine of their last 11 games. The Eagles have lost three of their last five.

NC State built its first double-digit lead at 23-13 on a pair of layups by Burns, the latter with 10:09 left in the first half.

The Eagles had their deficit down to six with 1:45 to go in the half, but Joiner closed out the scoring with two treys in the final 1:20 to push the lead to 44-32 at intermission.

David Jones scored 16 points as St. John’s led most of the way and recorded a 73-68 victory over No. 20 Providence Saturday afternoon in New York.

With Mike Krzyzewski in the stands for his first Division I game since retiring from Duke last spring, the Red Storm (15-11, 5-10 Big East) earned their second win over a ranked team. The Red Storm also won at UConn last month.

After missing two games due to the death of his father, Jones shot 6 of 17 and did enough to keep the Red Storm from blowing a 16-point lead midway through the first half.

AJ Storr added 15 points and Dylan Addae-Wusu contributed 13 for the Red Storm, who shot 44.3 percent and survived missing 14 of 18 3-point tries. Joel Soriano posted his 20th double-double with 10 points and 13 rebounds while Posh Alexander added 10 points and nine assists.

Providence (18-7, 10-4) missed a chance to keep pace with first-place Xavier, which lost to Butler on Friday.

Bryce Hopkins scored 29 points on 10-of-20 shooting to go along with nine rebounds, but the Friars shot a season-worst 33.3 percent from the field. Devin Carter added 12 points, but Jared Bynum and Ed Croswell were held to nine apiece.

After Jones hit a jumper, Drissa Traore’s dunk opened a 25-9 lead with 10:32 remaining in the first half. Storr’s three-point play opened a 30-16 lead with 7:06 left and Providence outscored the Red Storm 19-7 the rest of the half and got within 37-35 by halftime after Carter missed a trey at the horn.

A dunk by Soriano and a basket by Storr gave St. John’s a 62-52 lead with 7:39 remaining. The Red Storm went without a basket for nearly five minutes until a layup by Addae-Wusu made it 66-57.

Providence was within 69-63 when Hopkins stole Addae-Wusu’s inbounds pass and coasted in for a layup with 59 seconds left. After Alexander split a pair of free throws, Soriano blocked Hopkins at the rim with 47 seconds left to seal it.

Oso Ighodaro had 14 points, seven rebounds and five assists and Kam Jones also had 14 points for the Golden Eagles (20-6, 12-3 Big East). Olivier-Maxence Prosper contributed 11 points and seven rebounds.

The Golden Eagles are a half-game ahead of No. 13 Xavier.

Marquette’s next two games are against Xavier (Wednesday) and No. 23 Creighton (Feb. 21).

The Hoyas were without center Qudus Wahab for personal reasons. He averages 9.9 points and a team-high 7.1 rebounds.

The Golden Eagles outrebounded the Hoyas 36-33 after getting beaten on the boards 48-24 at UConn.

In a fast-paced game, Marquette hit 52.2 percent of its shots from the floor and 15 of 31 tries (48.4 percent) from beyond the arc. Jones led the way with four 3-pointers on nine tries.

Marquette raced to a 17-6 lead in the opening minutes as Jones made two treys.

But in the last three minutes of the period, Ben Gold and Chase Ross hit treys as the Golden Eagles grabbed a 45-33 edge at the break.

Early in the second half Marquette twice expanded its lead to 17 points as Stevie Mitchell and Prosper made 3-pointers. The lead topped out at 25 points.

Sir’Jabari Rice scored 24 points off the bench and the Texas defense did the rest as the fifth-ranked Longhorns dominated West Virginia 94-60 on Saturday in a Big 12 Conference contest in Austin, Texas.

The Longhorns forced 20 West Virginia turnovers that they turned into 32 points, 21 of those in the first half as Texas built a 21-point lead.

The Longhorns (20-5, 9-3 Big 12) pushed aside any notion of a West Virginia comeback by outscoring the Mountaineers 14-7 over the first eight minutes of the second half to expand their advantage to 65-37, and they cruised from there.

Rice finished 10-for-10 from the free-throw line. Marcus Carr scored 16 points, Timmy Allen added 14 points and Arterio Morris had 12 as Texas won for the fifth time in its past six Big 12 games to remain atop the conference standings.

The Longhorns swept the season series from West Virginia for the second straight campaign.

Emmitt Matthews Jr. was the only West Virginia player to reach double figures with 13 points. The Mountaineers (15-10, 4-8) had more turnovers than made field goals (19).

The Mountaineers came out ready to play, building a 12-8 lead after Matthews’ fourth bucket over the game’s first five-plus minutes. Texas responded, reeling off a 12-2 run to leapfrog ahead 20-14 after a 3-pointer by Rice.

The rest of the half belonged to the Longhorns as they went up by 15 points when Morris canned a 3-pointer with 7:01 left in the half.

Another Morris trey at the 4:38 mark built the Texas advantage to 41-23, and dunks by Christian Bishop and Rice, the latter at the buzzer after a steal by Morris, granted the Longhorns a 51-30 lead at the break.

Rice led all scorers with 14 points before halftime with Allen adding 10. The Longhorns forced 13 turnovers in the half and hit all 16 of their free throws over the first 20 minutes. Matthews paced the Mountaineers with 12 points before the break.
