NEW YORK — Tre Johnson endured a poor offensive night before scoring Texas' final six points — all from the line — and the Longhorns got past Syracuse 70-66 Thursday night after blowing a 16-point second-half lead at the UKG Legends Classic. Johnson, a freshman averaging 23.5 points per game, finished with 16 points but on 4-of-18 shooting, including 1 of 7 from the arc. He made 7 of 8 at the line. Arthur Kaluma had 16 points and 10 rebounds. J.J. Starling for the Orange, who shot 46% but made only 9 of 18 free throws.
