PITTSBURGH (AP) Deva'Nyar Workman poured in 24 points to match her career high and Duquesne used a big second half to push its win streak to 10 games as the Dukes knocked off No. 25 St. John's, 76-57 on Saturday.

Workman's previous high came last season in a win over then-No. 23 Syracuse.

The Red Storm rode in on an eight-game win streak, breaking into the Top 25 for the first time in two seasons.

St. John's led 33-30 at intermission after a hard-fought first half, but the Dukes took the lead in the third quarter on a layup by Workman that sparked an 11-2 run and put Duquesne up 52-44 to start the fourth.
